Age is not measured by years. Nature does not equally distribute energy. Some people are born old and tired while others are going strong at seventy.

Peace is not the absence of conflict but the presence of creative alternatives for responding to conflict - alternatives to passive or aggressive responses, alternatives to violence.
Peace has to be created, in order to be maintained. It will never be achieved by passivity and quietism.
