In Non-violence The Cause Has To Be

I Have Met Many, Many Farm Workers And Friends Who Love Justice And Who Are Willing To Sacrifice For What Is Right. They Have A Quality About Them That Reminds Me Of The Beatitudes. They Are Living Examples That Jesus' Promise Is True: They Have Ben Hungry And Thirsty For Righteousness And They Have Been Satisfied. They Are Determined, Patient People Who Believe In Life And Who Give Strength To Others. They Have Given Me More Love And Hope And Strength Than They Will Ever Know.

I Think One Of The Great, Great Problems...is Confusing People To The Point Where They Become Immobile. In Fact, The More Things People Can Find Out For Themselves, The More Vigor The Organization Is Going To Have.

However Important The Struggle Is And However Much Misery And Poverty And Degradation Exist, We Know That It Cannot Be More Important Than One Human Life.

Do Not Romanticize The Poor...we Are All People, Human Beings Subject To The Same Temptations And Faults As All Others. Our Poverty Damages Our Dignity.

If You Really Want To Make A Friend, Go To Someone's House And Eat With Him... The People Who Give You Their Food Give You Their Heart.
