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.

Hatred does not cease by hatred, but only by love; this is the eternal rule.

All your life, you will be faced with a choice. You can choose love or hate...I choose love.

The value of love will always be stronger than the value of hate. Any nation or group of nations which employs hatred eventually is torn to pieces by hatred.

The path of those who preach love, and not hatred, is not easy. They often have to wear a crown of thorns.

Darkness cannot drive out darkness, only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can do that.
