Individual civil disobedience was everybody's inherent right, like the right of self-defence in normal life.

To a pure heart all hearts are pure.

War is an unmitigated evil. But it certainly does one good thing. It drives away fear and brings bravery to the surface.

What kind of victory is it when someone is left defeated? What difference does it make to the dead, the orphans, and the homeless, whether the mad destruction is wrought under the name of totalitarianism or the holy name of liberty and democracy.

The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong. Non-cooperation with evil is a sacred duty.
