Moke

“If a man is convinced that he is safe only as long as he uses his power to give others a sense of insecurity, then the measure of their security is in his hands. If security or insecurity is at the mercy of a single individual or group, then control of behavior becomes routine. All imperialism functions in this way.”
― Howard Thurman

“Of all weapons, love is the most deadly and devastating, and few there be who dare trust their fate in its hands.”
― Howard Thurman, Deep Is the Hunger

“There is a certain grandeur and nobility in administering to another’s need out of one’s fullness and plenty.”
― Howard Thurman, Jesus and the Disinherited

“We have come in accordance with the counsel of Jesus to cut down our arrogant swords of argument into plowshares, and we convert into sickles the spears we formerly used in fighting. For we no longer take swords against a nation, nor do we learn anymore to make war, having become sons of peace for the sake of Jesus, who is our Lord.”
― Origen of Alexandria
