Nhat Hanh

Smiling is very important. If we are not able to smile, then the world will not have peace. It is not by going out for a demonstration against nuclear missiles that we can bring about peace. It is with our capacity of smiling, breathing, and being peace that we can make peace.
Nhat Hanh

Sometimes your joy is the source of your smile, but sometimes your smile can be the source of your joy.
Nhat Hanh

The practice of peace and reconciliation is one of the most vital and artistic of human actions.
Nhat Hanh

We really have to understand the person we want to love. If our love is only a will to possess, it is not love. If we only think of ourselves, if we know only our own needs and ignore the needs of the other person, we cannot love.
Nhat Hanh
