Everyday there are people in our world that do absolutely amazing things. People of all ages are very capable of doing tremendous, courageous things in spite of their fear.

It's okay to be scared, but fear is different. Fear is when we let being scared prevent us from doing what love requires of us.

I believe passionately in the power of people.

We have to start from the fact that there are always alternatives to violence.

I witnessed a lot of violence, and I found myself asking the question: Do you ever use violence to try to bring about political change?

Palestine has a very strong nonviolent movement.

One great hope lies in the fact that there is a new consciousness in our World, particularly among young people.
