When cowardice is made respectable, its followers are without number both from among the weak and the strong; it easily becomes a fashion. – Eric Hoffer
My nonviolence does not admit of running away from danger and leaving dear ones unprotected. Between violence and cowardly flight, I can only prefer violence to cowardice. I can no more preach nonviolence to a coward than I can tempt a blind man to enjoy healthy scenes. – Mahatma Gandhi
