Absence Quote by Muhammad Yunus

“I said peace is sometimes narrowly interpreted; it's the absence of conflict between nations or something. But peace is more inherent, more basic to human life, human beings, what we feel about each other, what we feel about life around us and what we see in our future.” quote by Muhammad Yunus — Download Open image
