Let no man pull you so low as to hate him.

The nonviolent approach does not immediately change the heart of the oppressor. It first does something to the hearts and souls of those committed to it. It gives them new self-respect; it calls up resources of strength and courage they did not know they had.

Hatred paralyses life; love releases it. Hatred confuses life; love harmonizes it. Hatred darkens life; love illuminates it.

We must live together as brothers or perish together as fools.

Darkness is only driven out with light, not more darkness.

The time is always right to do what is right.
