Together, all things are possible

Kindness and compassion towards all living things is a mark of a civilized society. Conversely, cruelty, whether it is directed against human beings or against animals, is not the exclusive province of any one culture or community of people.

Non violence means people in action. People have to understand that with non-violence goes a hell of a lot of organization.

You are never strong enough that you don't need help.

There's no reason to be non-violent. There's no challenge unless you are living for people.

Organizing is an educational process. The best educational process in the union is the picket line and the boycott. You learn about life.

We shall strike. We shall organize boycotts. We shall demonstrate and have political campaigns. We shall pursue the revolution we have proposed. We are sons and daughters of the farm workers' revolution, a revolution of the poor seeking bread and justice.
