If We Are Full Of Hatred, We

I Remember With Strong Feelings The Families Who Joined Our Movement And Paid Dues Long Before There Was Any Hope Of Winning Contracts. Sometimes, Fathers And Mothers Would Take Money Out Of Their Meager Food Budgets Just Because They Believed That Farm Workers Could And Must Build Their Own Union. I Remember Thinking Then That With Spirit Like That... We Had To Win. No Force On Earth Could Stop Us.

We Do Not Need To Kill Or Destroy To Win. We Are A Movement That Builds And Not Destroys.

Concentration Is Inspiration. You Must Be Completely Overtaken By Your Work And Your Subject. Only Then Do All Your Influences And Experience Come Up To The Surface.

Grant Me Courage To Serve Others; For In Service There Is True Life.

We Can Choose To Use Our Lives For Others To Bring About A Better And More Just World For Our Children. People Who Make That Choice Will Know Hardship And Sacrifice. But If You Give Yourself Totally To The Non-violence Struggle For Peace And Justice You Also Find That People Give You Their Hearts And You Will Never Go Hungry And Never Be Alone. And In Giving Of Yourself You Will Discover A Whole New Life Full Of Meaning And Love.
