Nonviolence is a flop. The only bigger flop is violence.
The only thing that's been a worse flop than the organization of nonviolence has been the organization of violence.
We were raised with that discussion about violence and non-violence, and we all pretty much came up on the side of non-violence. That became my foundation with politics and my livelihood.
The foundation of my beliefs is the same as it was when I was 10. Non-violence.
