Betty Williams Quotes

Two-point-seven percent unemployment equates to -- everybody who wants to work is working. It equates to full employment Picture Quote #1

Turmoil is everywhere, and the whole world is waiting for solutions to come from the top down. That’s not how it works - community change from the bottom up makes a real difference Picture Quote #1

I don’t think I’m yet peaceful because I have to struggle every day within myself when I see the suffering of the people of the world, the women and the children. And fury sets in.

There is no use talking about the problem unless you talk about the solution Picture Quote #1

We want to live and love and build a just and peaceful society Picture Quote #1

Fear’s contagious, but so is courage Picture Quote #1

We believe in taking down the barriers, but we also believe in the most energetic reconciliation among peoples by getting them to know each other, talk each other’s languages, understand each other’s fears and beliefs, getting to know each other physically, philosophically, and spiritually.

We have to create a world in which there are no unknown, hostile aliens at the other end of any missiles Picture Quote #1

To say that on a daily basis you can make a difference, well, you can. One act of kindness a day can do it Picture Quote #1

Governments do not have the answers. Indeed quite the reversal. A lot of times they not only do not have the answers, they themselves are the problem. If we are committed to helping our world’s children, then we must begin to create solutions from the bottom up Picture Quote #1

We want for our children, as we want for ourselves, lives at home, at work and at play to be lives of joy and peace Picture Quote #1

Compassion is more important than intellect in calling forth the love that the work of peace needs, and intuition can often be a far more powerful searchlight than cold reason Picture Quote #1

We dedicate ourselves to working with our neighbors, near and far, day in and day out, to building that peaceful society in which the tragedies we have known are a bad memory and a continuing warning Picture Quote #1

I’m trying to show by my actions that you can make a far better world if you just care enough. That’s all you have to do. It’s no big deal. One act of kindness a day can do it Picture Quote #1
