Buddhism: Perfect peace can dwell only where all vanity has disappeared (The Buddha).

Christianity: Blessed are the peacemakers: they shall be recognized as children of God (Matthew 5:9).

Hinduism: As rivers flow into the ocean but cannot make the vast ocean overflow, so flows the stream of the sense-world into the sea of peace that is the sage (Bhagavad Gita II, 70).

Islam: Whatever good betides you is from God and whatever evil betides you is from your own self (Qur’an 4, 79).

Jainism: The force of arms cannot do what peace does. If you can gain your desired end with sugar, why use poison? (Somadeva, Nitivakyamita 344).

Sikhism: O, ignorant man, torture not your body as if in a furnace, feed not the fire with your bones, there is nothing wrong; Look within yourself for the Lord, and you will attain peace (Adi Granth I, Shlokas).

Zoroastrianism:
In this world may obedience triumph over disobedience,
May peace triumph over discord,
May generosity triumph over niggardliness,
May love triumph over contempt (Yasna 60:5Z).
