Violence isn't always evil. What's evil is the infatuation with violence.

I object to violence because when it appears to do good, the good is only temporary; the evil it does is permanent.

All violence consists in some people forcing others, under threat of suffering or death, to do what they do not want to do.

Government is an association of men who do violence to the rest of us.

There is only one way to put an end to evil, and that is to do good for evil.

Democracy don't rule the world, You'd better get that in your head; This world is ruled by violence, But I guess that's better left unsaid.
