Live with Love Rather than Force

You might quiet the whole world for a second
if you pray.

And if you love, if you
really love,

our guns will
wilt.

-- St. John of the Cross, as quoted in Wayne Dyer's Change Your Thoughts -- Change Your Life: Living the Wisdom of the Tao. (I have been reading Wayne's interpretation of the Tao Te Ching daily -- available through Hay House. Consider it.)
