Violence Quotes
Text Quotes

I believe there are more instances of the abridgment of the freedom of the people by gradual and silent encroachments of those in power, than by violent and sudden usurpations; but, on a candid examination of history, we shall find that turbulence, violence, and abuse of power, by the majority trampling on the rights of the minority, have produced factions and commotions, which, in republics, have, more frequently than any other cause, produced despotism (Violence Quotes)

I say: look around, analyze the problems, ask yourself what you can do and set out on the work! (Violence Quotes)
