Violence Just Hurts Those Who Are Already

Who Gets The Risks? The Risks Are Given To The Consumer, The Unsuspecting Consumer And The Poor Work Force. And Who Gets The Benefits? The Benefits Are Only For The Corporations, For The Money Makers.

When Workers Fall Back On Violence, They Are Lost. Oh, They Might Win Some Of Their Demands And Might End A Strike A Little Earlier, But They Give Up Their Imagination, Their Creativity, Their Will To Work Hard And To Suffer For What They Believe Is Right.

You Know, If People Are Not Pacifists, It's Not Their Fault. It's Because Society Puts Them In That Spot. You've Got To Change It. You Don't Just Change A Man - You've Got To Change His Environment As You Do It.

The Basis For Peace Is Respecting All Creatures.

...people Think Non-violence Is Really Weak And Non-militant. These Are Misconceptions That People Have Because They Don't Understand What Non-violence Means. Non-violence Takes More Guts, If I Can Put It Bluntly, Than Violence. Most Violent Acts Are Accomplished By Getting The Opponent Off Guard, And It Doesn't Take That Much Character, I Think, If One Wants To Do It.
