This quote suggests that true peace cannot be achieved when it is driven by fear and not genuine emotions. It implies that peace derived out of fear lacks authenticity and is merely a false facade. True peace comes from a place of empathy, understanding, and compassion rather than being motivated by the desire to avoid conflict or any external threat. Ultimately, real peace can only be attained when it stems from a sincere and heartfelt place.
