One can always win a war, but how does one conquer peace?

Summary

This quote highlights the complexity and difficulty of achieving lasting peace after a war. While it may be possible for nations to use force and tactics to emerge victorious in a conflict, the real challenge lies in establishing a sustainable and enduring peace. Conquering peace requires addressing deep-rooted grievances, building trust, fostering diplomacy, promoting understanding, and fostering cooperation among nations. It suggests that while the path to war may be more straightforward, the journey towards peace is much more complex, demanding intentional and collective efforts to address the underlying causes of conflicts and strive for harmonious coexistence.
