Bertrand Russell Quotes(バートランド・ラッセルの名言・警句)

 

It (= Non-violnet resistance) certainly has an important sphere; as against the British in India, Gandhi led it to triumph. But it depends upon the existence of certain virtues in those against whom it is employed. When Indians lay down on railways, and challenged the authorities to crush them under trains, the British found such cruelty intolerable. But the Nazis had no scruples in analogous situations.
