Ovid (43 BCE-17 CE)
“Myself, I can’t stand fighting,
Peace is my thing: You know: make love not war.”
also translated as
“Whilst I, whom neither seas nor arms invite,
In love alone, the fruit of peace, delight;”
or
“I hate all warfare:
I delight in peace, and to find love in its midst.”
- From The Amores (3.2.50) by Ovid, translated by Peter Green in The Erotic Poems (Penguin Classics, 1982). The second translation version is from HERE and the third is from HERE.
