The peace in the homes is the peace in the towns. The peace in the towns is the peace in the nation. The peace in the nation is the peace in the world.

About This Quote

The peace in the home is the peace in the town.The peace in the town is the peace in the nation.The peace in the nation is the peace in the world. The idea here is that there is no true peace unless everyone has it at home, so by extension, there will be no true peace until all of us have it at home, too. This quote is a great reminder that if one person has peace at home, it makes it easier for others to have peace at home. So, if you are able to influence families, neighborhoods, towns and nations to have peace at home, you are helping to build an environment of peace for everyone everywhere.
