I was court-martialled in my absence, and sentenced to death in my absence, so I said they could shoot me in my absence.
Believe it or not, there are people who want to be on juries.
Peace without justice is tyranny.
Peace is not absence of conflict, it is the ability to handle conflict by peaceful means.

I always say that non-violence is not the weapon of the weak. It is the weapon of the strong.
The absent are like children, helpless to defend themselves.
