A few quotes that just might be relevent.
From Malcom X
"Be peaceful, be courteous, obey the law, respect everyone; but if someone puts his hand on you, send him to the cemetery."
“My alma mater was books, a good library.... I could spend the rest of my life reading, just satisfying my curiosity.”
“You're not to be so blind with patriotism that you can't face reality. Wrong is wrong, no matter who does it or says it.”
"I'm for truth, no matter who tells it. I'm for justice, no matter who it is for or against. I'm a human being, first and foremost, and as such I'm for whoever and whatever benefits humanity as a whole.”
A (possibly bad) paraphrasing of wiccan since I can't find the quote I remember - "if it harms none do what you will, if it harms one do what you must"
and finally 2 quotes from the Kung Fu old TV show "Perceive the way of nature and no force of man can harm you. Do not meet a wave head on: avoid it. You do not have to stop force: it is easier to redirect it. Learn more ways to preserve rather than destroy. Avoid rather than check. Check rather than hurt. Hurt rather than maim. Maim rather than kill. For all life is precious nor can any be replaced. "
Master Tae, What is the best way to deal with force?’ -Disciple Caine
‘As we prize peace and quiet above victory, there is a simple and preferred method…. Run away.’
