Our hours in love have wings; in absence, crutches.
Miguel de Cervantes
Peace is not a relationship of nations. It is a condition of mind brought about by a serenity of soul. Peace is not merely the absence of war. It is also a state of mind. Lasting peace can come only to peaceful people.
Jawaharlal Nehru
Peace is not absence of conflict, it is the ability to handle conflict by peaceful means.
Ronald Reagan
Peace is not an absence of war, it is a virtue, a state of mind, a disposition for benevolence, confidence, justice.
Baruch Spinoza
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.
Dorothy Thompson
Peace is not the absence of war, but a virtue based on strength of character.
Baruch Spinoza
Peace must be more than the absence of war.
Helmut Kohl
Program testing can be used to show the presence of bugs, but never to show their absence!
Edsger Dijkstra
Proverbs often contradict one another, as any reader soon discovers. The sagacity that advises us to look before we leap promptly warns us that if we hesitate we are lost; that absence makes the heart grow fonder, but out of sight, out of mind.
Leo Rosten
Real magic in relationships means an absence of judgment of others.
Wayne Dyer

Charles Horton Cooley
Sport is part of every man and woman's heritage and its absence can never be compensated for.
Pierre de Coubertin
Tact is one of the first mental virtues, the absence of it is fatal to the best talent.
William Gilmore Simms
That a great battle must soon be fought no one could doubt; but, in the apparent and perhaps real absence of plan on the part of Lee, it was impossible to foretell the precise scene of the encounter.
Edward Everett
The absence and suppression of justice can only open the way for extremists to exploit such a condition to perpetrate acts of violence against innocents.
King Hussein I
The absence of alternatives clears the mind marvelously.
Henry A. Kissinger
The absence of flaw in beauty is itself a flaw.
Henry Ellis
The absence of the heavy boot of Europe has preserved to these people the agile walk of the wild animal, while the general simplicity of their lives has given them many other points of physical perfection.
John Millington Synge
The alarming thing in China is the almost total absence of primary care. Even in cities, there are no independent doctors' offices or neighborhood clinics, so people have to go to the hospital for every health care need.
Nancy Travis
The deeper the experience of an absence of meaning - in other words, of absurdity - the more energetically meaning is sought.
Vaclav Havel
