“Peace is the best thing that man may know; peace alone is better than a thousand triumphs”
Pax optima rerum
quas homini novisse datum est, pax una triumphis
innumeris potior, pax custodire salutem
et civis aequare potens revocetur in arcis
tandem Sidonias, et fama fugetur ab urbe
perfidiae, Phoenissa, tua.
Book XI, lines 592–597<!--; spoken by Hanno.-->
Punica
Context: Peace is the best thing that man may know; peace alone is better than a thousand triumphs; peace has power to guard our lives and secure equality among fellow-citizens. Let us then after so long recall peace to the city of Carthage, and banish the reproach of treachery from Dido's city.
“When you've seen beyond yourself, then you may find, peace of mind is waiting there.”
