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. -Martin Luther King, Jr., civil-rights leader
(1929-1968)
The great thing about getting older is that you don't lose all the other
ages you've been. -Madeleine L'Engle, writer (1918- )
