Mahatma Gandhi: "Nonviolence is a weapon of the strong."
Martin Luther king Jr: "Nonviolence is a powerful and just weapon which cuts without wounding and ennobles the man who wields it. It is a sword that heals."
These two quotes are similar because they both relate to nonviolence. Both quotes refer to nonviolence as a weapon because it doesn't hurt anyone but can still cause damage and defeat enemies. It requires great discipline to follow nonviolence and love is also required. You have to be at peace with yourself to be successful and overcome enemies/obstacles in your life. For over centuries violence hasn't solved anything. Both Gandhi and MLK have discovered that nonviolent actions can solve any conflicts if they are followed through correctly.
