Conquer With Love


Repay evil with good and, lo, he between whom and you there was enmity will become your warm friend. - Islam


Be not overcome with evil, but overcome evil with good. - Christianity


When one injures another, the injured turns around and injures the injurer. Similarly, when one cherishes another, the other cherishes the cherisher. One should frame one's rule of conduct according to this. - Hindiusm


A soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger. - Judaism


Conquer your foe by force, and you increase his anger. Conquer by love, and you will reap no after sorrow. - Buddhism


Force, no matter how concealed, begets resistance. - Lakota Native American

Blessed Are The Peacemakers

Shall I tell you what acts are better than fasting, charity, and prayers? Making peace between enemies are such acts; for enmity and malice tear up the heavenly rewards by the roots. -Islam


The noble minded dedicate themselves to the promotion of peace and happiness of others - even those who injure them. - Hinduism


To the counsellors of peace is joy. - Judaism


When a thought of war comes, oppose it by a stronger thought of peace. A thought of hatred must be destroyed by a more powerful thought of love. - Baha'i


He heals divisions, and cements friendships; seeking peace, and ensuring it, for in peace is his delight, and his words are ever the words of a peacemaker. - Buddhism
