Eredeti: It is the enemy who can truly teach us to practice the virtues of compassion and tolerance.
Túl Vietnámon (1967)
Eredeti: Here is the true meaning and value of compassion and nonviolence, when it helps us to see the enemy's point of view, to hear his questions, to know his assessment of ourselves. For from his view we may indeed see the basic weaknesses of our own condition, and if we are mature, we may learn and grow and profit from the wisdom of the brothers who are called the opposition.

Eredeti: To forgive is not to forget. (...) There is no merit in loving an enemy when you forget him for a friend.
Eredeti: If there is love, there is hope that one may have real families, real brotherhood, real equanimity, real peace. If the love within your mind is lost and you see other beings as enemies, then no matter how much knowledge or education or material comfort you have, only suffering and confusion will ensue
