I think the point is that struggling is the same as fighting and fighting ain’t peace. My guess is that most people are peace lovers but not peaceniks.

Actually, I agree with the turtle - it would be nice not to struggle sometimes.

I tend to think most “sayings” by “wise men” were actually jokes played upon us by “wise guys”.

True peace must come from within–only then can you reach peace with someone else.
