If we can isolate this element in what we hate we may be able to cease from hating...

Withdrawal of support of evil requires complete abstention from violence. Non-violence implies voluntary submission to the penalty for non-cooperation with evil.

Merely to resist evil with evil by hating those who hate us and seeking to destroy them, is actually no resistance at all.
