• To hate another is to hate yourself.
  We all live within the one Universal Mind.
  What we think about another, we think about ourselves.
  If you have an enemy, forgive him now.
  Let all bitterness and resentment dissolve.
  You owe your fellow man love; show him love, not hate.
  Show charity and goodwill toward others
  and it will return to enhance your own life
  in many wonderful ways.

  Bryan Adams

• The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral, begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy. Instead of diminishing evil, it multiplies it. Through violence you may murder the liar, but you cannot murder the lie, nor establish the truth. Through violence you may murder the hater, but you do not murder hate. In fact, violence merely increases hate... Darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.

  Martin Luther King, Jr.
