The only thing that's been a worse flop than the organization of non-violence has been the organization of violence.
Perseverance is more prevailing than violence; and many things which cannot be overcome when they are together, yield themselves up when taken little by little.
The right things to do are those that keep our violence in abeyance; the wrong things are those that bring it to the fore.
It is by no means self-evident that human beings are most real when most violently excited; violent physical passions do not in themselves differentiate men from each other, but rather tend to reduce them to the same state.
It is better to be violent, if there is violence in our hearts, than to put on the cloak of nonviolence to cover impotence.
