Active nonviolence of the brave puts to flight thieves, dacoits, murderers, and prepares an army of volunteers ready to sacrifice themselves in quelling riots, in extinguishing fires and feuds, and so on.

They have not been created to feed our destructive propensities. If we only knew the mind of the Creator, we should find their proper place in His creation.
