I am a violent man who has learned not to be violent and regrets his violence.

I used to be cruel to women, and physically-any woman. I was a hitter. I couldn't express myself and I hit. I fought men and I hit women. That is why I am always on about peace.

We're trying to sell peace, like a product, you know, and sell it like people sell soap or soft drinks. And it's the only way to get people aware that peace is possible, and it isn't just inevitable to have violence. Not just war - all forms of violence.

If you want peace, you won't get it with violence.

The struggle with evil by means of violence is the same as an attempt to stop a cloud, in order that there may be no rain.

I think the words you stop yourself from saying are the ones that will haunt you the longest.
