Veganism is about nonviolence: nonviolence to other sentient beings; nonviolence to yourself; nonviolence to the earth.

Gary L. Francione

Unless discipline is rooted in nonviolence, it might prove to be a source of infinite mischief.

Mahatma Gandhi

My work has always been rooted in nonviolence, as espoused by the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.

Linda Sarsour

My father's approach to the most brutal and unambiguous social injustices during the civil rights struggle was rooted in nonviolence as a morally and tactically correct response.

Martin Luther King III

We need to build resilience together, rooted in religion, rooted in schools, rooted in our health care institutions.

Sheryl Sandberg

I knew I wanted to do a show on NBC - it's rooted in its history; it's part rooted in nostalgia and part rooted in the potential of it. For me, there was no other choice.

Jerrod Carmichael

It is no longer a choice between violence and nonviolence in this world; it's nonviolence or nonexistence. That is where we are today.

Martin Luther King, Jr.

The nonviolence I teach is active nonviolence of the strongest. But the weakest can partake in it without becoming weaker.

Mahatma Gandhi

Nonviolence and cowardice go ill together. True nonviolence is an impossibility without the possession of unadulterated fearlessness.

Mahatma Gandhi

Martin Luther King taught us all nonviolence. I was told to extend nonviolence to the mother and her calf.

Dick Gregory

Whilst I may not actually help anyone to retaliate, I must not let a coward seek shelter behind nonviolence so-called. Not knowing the stuff of which nonviolence is made, many have honestly believed that running away from danger every time was a virtue compared to offering resistance, especially when it was fraught with danger to one's life. As a teacher of nonviolence I must, so far as it is possible for me, guard against such an unmanly belief.

Mahatma Gandhi

Today’s world is traveling in some strange direction. You see that the world is going toward destruction and violence. And the specialty of violence is to create hatred among people and to create fear. I am a believer in nonviolence and I say that no peace or tranquility will descend upon the people of the world until nonviolence is practiced, because nonviolence is love and it stirs courage in people.

Khan Abdul Ghaffar Khan

I just think that if one is going to preach nonviolence and one is going to advocate for nonviolence, one's standard should be consistent.

Ta-Nehisi Coates

Christians are nonviolent not, therefore, because we believe that nonviolence is a strategy to rid the world of war, but because nonviolence is constitutive of what it means to be a disciple to Jesus.

Stanley Hauerwas

Peace is the alternative to war, and nonviolence should be seen as the antidote to violence, not simply as its opposite. Nonviolence is more concerned with saving life than with saving face.

Jesse Jackson

The essence of nonviolence is love. Out of love and the willingness to act selflessly, strategies, tactics, and techniques for a nonviolent struggle arise naturally. Nonviolence is not a dogma; it is a process.

Nhat Hanh
