"Non-cooperation with evil is as much a duty as cooperation with good. Non-co-operation is a protest against an unwitting and unwilling participation in evil... The duty of non-co-operation with unjust men and kings is as strictly enjoined by all the religions as is the duty of co-operation with just men and kings. At times non-cooperation becomes as much a duty as cooperation. No one is bound to co-operate in one's own undoing or slavery. I cooperate with all that is good. I desire to non-cooperate with all that is evil... My non-co-operation has its root not in hatred, but in love... My non-cooperation, though it is part of my creed, is a prelude to co-operation. My non-co-operation is with methods and systems, never with men."
