John Ruskin

Peace, Winning, Evil

John Ruskin (2015). “The Two Paths”, p.160, John Ruskin

No peace was ever won from fate by subterfuge or argument; no peace is ever in store for any of us, but that which we shall win by victory over shame or sin--victory over the sin that oppresses, as well as over that which corrupts.

John Ruskin

Peace, Fate, Winning

You may assuredly find perfect peace, if you are resolved to do that which your Lord has plainly required--and content that He should indeed require no more of you--than to do justice, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with Him.

John Ruskin

Peace, Perfect, Justice

John Ruskin

Peace, People, Heaven

John Ruskin (1905). “Selections from Writings”
