Summary

This quote suggests that anger and pride stand in contradiction to non-violence.

Both anger and pride hinder the pursuit of peaceful coexistence and conflict resolution. The quote therefore implies the importance of keeping anger and pride in check in order to embrace non-violence as a means of promoting harmony and understanding.
