Peace is a fragile thing. It takes courage to secure it. It takes wisdom to maintain it.

It is not to be disguised, that a war has broken out between the North and the South. - Political and commercial men are industriously striving to restore peace: but the peace, which they would effect, is superficial, false, and temporary.

True, permanent peace can never be restored, until slavery, the occasion of the war, has ceased.

We were so shocked by how fast that war went that President Bush did not have a plan, a peace plan.

I have often supported Israel, I have often visited the country and want the country to exist and at last find peace with its neighbours.
