It is hardly a moral act to encourage others patiently to accept injustice which he himself does not endure.

Like an unchecked cancer, hate corrodes the personality and eats away its vital unity.

Violence is immoral because it thrives on hatred rather than love. It destroys community and makes brotherhood impossible. It leaves society in monologue rather than dialogue. Violence ends by defeating itself. It creates bitterness in the survivors and brutality in the destroyers.

Great people aren't those who are happy at times of convienience and content, but of how they are in times of catastrophy and controversy.

I still have a dream today that one day war will come to an end, that men will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks, that nations will no longer rise up against nations, neither will they study war any more.
