In Non-violence The Cause Has To Be

...many Have The Idea That Organizing People Is Very Difficult, But It Isn't. It Becomes Difficult Only At The Point Where You Begin To See Other Things That Are Easier. But If You Are Willing To Give The Time And Make The Sacrifice, It's Not That Difficult To Organize.

There Is A Great Fear Of Our Union - A Fear That I Do Not Fully Understand, But That I Know Is Present...what Is It That Causes Some Men To Act So Hastily And So Cruelly? It Cannot Be That We Are So Powerful. Is It So Much To Ask That The Poorest People Of The Land Have A Measure Of Justice?

In Giving Of Yourself, You Will Discover A Whole New Life Full Of Meaning And Love.

Once Social Change Begins, It Cannot Be Reversed. You Cannot Un-educate The Person Who Has Learned To Read. You Cannot Humiliate The Person Who Feels Pride. You Cannot Oppress The People Who Are Not Afraid Anymore. Cesar Chavez Address To The Commonwealth Club In San Francisco, Nov. 9, 1984
