Be At Peace Quotes

Yes, death. Death must be so beautiful. To lie in the soft brown earth, with the grasses waving above one's head, and listen to silence. To have no yesterday, and no to-morrow.

Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.

You are free to be at peace with yourself and all those whom your life touches.
