Never give them the power to make you submit or rebel.

Any decent society has to be built on trust and love and the intelligent use of information and feelings. Education involves being able to practice those things as you struggle to build a decent society that can be nonviolent.

Christians are nonviolent not, therefore, because we believe that nonviolence is a strategy to rid the world of war, but because nonviolence is constitutive of what it means to be a disciple to Jesus.

Nonviolence means avoiding not only external physical violence but also internal violence of spirit. You not only refuse to shoot a man, but you refuse to hate him.

We didn't want our system so stuffed with nonviolent offenders that we were paroling violent offenders. What makes sense is to use those resources for your most violent offenders.

We must follow nonviolent principle so that later we can live happily.
