It started as a quiet and calm demonstration as we had promised for the sake of avoiding any hassles for the innocent bystanders but the police turned it into violence.

Ram Kumar

We are paying very close attention to those who are involved in activities that promote either fraudulent elections or promote violence.

David Kramer

Playing games with the data won't make prisons safer. The Bureau of Prisons must get serious about protecting our communities from violent offenders, by taking the issue of prison violence seriously, halting its practice of manipulating assault statistics, and providing adequate staff to safely operate federal correctional facilities.

Bryan Lowry

Iraq is at a very precarious point now and security is continuously deteriorating. Until security is stabilized people will continue to be displaced due to sectarian violence.

Dana Graber

We will not be violent, but if there is violence from the security forces we will have to respond.

Nadia Matar

The whole thing is so predictable. This is a form of sexism that is so mainstream that people don't even blink their eyes when they learn the Duke lacrosse team hired a stripper. In a perfect world, that would not be sexist. But this is a world where one in four college women are sexually assaulted and women can't walk on campus at night because of the threat of violence from men.

Jackson Katz

A revolution is an act of violence whereby one class shatters the authority of another.

James Macgregor Burns

Our client has retained civil counsel for the purpose of trying to work out their marital problems rather than proceeding in domestic violence court.

Donald C. Schiller

Provoking political violence on a wider scale.

Wayne Bvudzijena

These people are at the bleeding edge of gender-based violence. This is a problem for many people in the prison system, but gender-nonconforming people are subjected to greater risk.

Carrie Davis

Violence is attracting the young folks. We want to let those young folks know that violence isn't the way. They are going to wind up in the penitentiary or the cemetery.

Thurston Wiggins

Our facility is not suitable for a person in this gentleman's condition. ... If we had known he was prone to violence, we would not have accepted him.

Chris Kearney

One recommendation from the summit was to focus on supporting parents and helping them talk about issues like violence with children. Our research shows that there is a window of opportunity with preadolescents when they're most receptive to messages from their parents.

Christina Hoff Sommers

These demonstrators, particularly those who were bent on violence and destruction, made it difficult for us, ... It was a calculated strategy of major, active and threatening disturbances.

Norm Stamper

At the beginning, I wasn't aware of some of the stuff that goes on. Now, I have a heightened awareness of domestic violence and how to spot it.

Danielle Jones

I want to believe that with the signing of this agreement today, Liberia will never be plunged into another spiral of violence in the quest for political power, or under the false pretense of liberating the people.

Abdulsalami Abubakar

Our children are now moved along from the cartoon violence in 'Ninja Turtles' to the cold-blooded murder in 'The Matrix Reloaded' in just a few short years.

Daphne White

The vulgar think the God by analogy to man and so worship Him in the form of the Gods. The learned think the God by analogy to principles and so worship Him in the form of Love or Truth. But the wise think the God not at all. They know that thought, which is finite, can only do violence to the God, which is infinite.It is enough, they say, that the God thinks them.

R. Scott Bakker

We won't stand for cowardly acts. We just want this rash of violence to end in our community.

Sean Howard

In every charge, in every count, she was an active participant in the sexual assault of these children. Even after her husband was arrested (on domestic violence charges), she never came forward and said anything about the sexual assaults by her husband.

David Lamb

I don't think it's ever appropriate for us to make light of significant human pain . . . when people feel fearful, walking down the street, for who they are. I wouldn't laugh at a movie that attempted to portray lynching in a funny way. Hate violence is just not acceptable fodder for comedy.

Lelia Deandrade

I ain't never liked violence.

Sugar Ray Robinson

The quantity of drugs, in comparison with our interdiction capabilities and our poverty, presents an enormous danger, ... Because it doesn't just involve an enormous quantity of money, but a capacity for creating violence ... and corruption.

Ricardo Maduro

Today, there is a plethora of violence, which begins at an early age as the child is exposed to entertainment violence through TV, videos, DVDs and older siblings who act as models of this violent behavior. Now if you couple that exposure with a dysfunctional household, you have a recipe for disaster.

Vernon Geberth

Since it is the state which is responsible for these social services, the government becomes discredited and a deep-seated attitude of alienation sets in. The entire society reaps the effect in the high incidence of crime, violence and anti-social behaviour.

Dr Peter Phillips

It's just a rogue act of violence done by people who have been misguided.

Ahmed Nazif

This was completely unprovoked. It really could have been anybody. It was a random act of violence. She just happened to be there, at the wrong place at the wrong time.

Kate Wagner

We have a moral obligation to tackle television violence and provide parents with the tools to make their children safer.

Jay Rockefeller

We cannot accept it when disappointment degenerates into violence.

Giacinto Facchetti

I think the violence was quite simply about criminality, about people intent on seizing an opportunity to pick up on some of the tensions that had evolved during this week.

David Shaw

That's a very alarming number. The situation is very comparable to Colombia in terms of self-censorship and the level of violence.

Joel Simon

I thought a lot about my attitude toward the world, toward fear and violence, and that I had something to say about these things. If you had asked me then what I was writing about, I would have said, in a kind of Kerouac-like romantic vein, 'America.'

Robert Stone

The messages I heard last week was show up, bring your family, bring your children, don't get pulled into violence, there may be people trying to provoke you.

Felix Gutierrez

I'd seen too many shrines in South Central and thought it was worth asking where the first bullet came from that started all this violence.

Antoine Fuqua

We wanted to inform our readers of a story that had violence spawned by imagery. We felt they wouldn't be adequately informed if they couldn't see the imagery that was the root of this entire story.

Chuck Prochaska

Frustration is the wet nurse of violence.

David Abrahansen

That's why we're here tonight. (Sexual violence) touches everyone tonight we're taking the first step in saying we are not going to tolerate it.

Melissa Kleinman

The play is called Silenced because too many young innocent voices have been silenced through some form of violence.

Pat Cravins

Weapons were not carried and were hardly necessary when you had such an advantage in numbers. The violence took the form of beatings, kicks and stamping.

Richard Horwell

Had we not joined forces and brought these events about, our community may not even be aware of the kinds of resources (that are available). We've given them a message that we are here and that we are working on violence and substance abuse in their community.

Ann Mcbride

We urge the Albanian government to immediately draw up a plan of action that includes protection mechanisms for women who suffer from violence, and to prosecute and punish the perpetrators, including by making domestic violence an offence under the Criminal Code.

Sian Jones

You have the potential for extreme, unprovoked violence when under the influence.

Pat O'brien

It's a sign that the laws of the republic apply to everyone and that we will not give in to violence.

Gerard Gaudron

Unless we teach our children peace, somebody else will teach them violence, ... Each year, fewer than 2 percent of [U.S.] schools are taking peace education seriously.

Colman Mccarthy

It is quite disturbing to note that some people will not hesitate to use violence to push their viewpoint despite all the dispute resolution mechanisms at their disposal.

Membathisi Mdladlana

We firmly believe that the Maoists must abandon violence and the king must reach out and reconcile with the parties if we are to see a peaceful, prosperous and democratic Nepal.

Donald Camp

The most terrible thing about materialism, even more terrible than its proneness to violence, is its boredom, from which sex, alcohol, drugs, all devices for putting out the accusing light of reason and suppressing the unrealizable aspirations of love, offer a prospect of deliverance.

Malcolm Muggeridge

The weekend's violence was much more deep-seated than many are perhaps prepared to accept. There has been a build-up of resentment that those who practice violence get listened to and have their concerns addressed ... Republicans are seen to influence government by threatening force and getting rewarded for their efforts.

Reg Empey

If we look at multiple genes, the ethnic variations such as the ones we found are likely to be counterbalanced by other differences. Just because these genes are still evolving, doesn't necessarily mean they make you any smarter. We've evolved genes for selfishness, violence, cruelty û- all of which are in place because they may make survival easier.

Bruce T. Lahn

We're looking into a possible destabilization attempt. It could be part of symbolic violence, because what could be the purpose in shooting the building at that time of the day?

Vidal Querol

As previous campaigns in Haiti show, the date draws nearer and the levels of violence by those who are convinced they won't win tends to escalate.

Robert Mcguire

Once the government told people it was their duty to go out and attack neighbors, it happened very quickly. It kind of snowballed. People committed violence and wanted others to do the same thing, and a kind of group conformity swept through.

Scott Straus

ABC, NBC, CBS can portray graphic sex from 9 to 11 p.m., but they won't air anything with profane language and our brand of violence. I guess the other is okay, because audiences know it's not real, that it's fantasy. Our show is not fantasy. It's real.

Luke Macfarlane

At a time when the government was getting ready for a confrontation, the rebels' announcement has helped eased the tension and ensure that there will be no violence.

Amrit Bohara

Violence will surely continue to weigh on the euro.

Michiyoshi Kato

We are trying to send a message of support to survivors of sexual violence - to draw attention to social and legal problems around sexual violence in South Africa.

Carrie Shelver

It is clear that the Palestinians need to take comprehensive steps to stop terror attacks. It is also important for Palestinians to understand that terrorist violence does grave damage to Palestinian aspirations for a Palestinian state. We urge Palestinians to do everything necessary to end terror attacks.

Jeanie Mamo

I'd just like to take a moment here to say that I'm totally opposed to violence in the school system. I think that teachers are subjected to a lot of stuff that kids are... Children out there, if you feel so compelled to maim your teacher, I think that's okay, but to really get rough and snuff 'em out, that's tough.

Mclean Stevenson

We are hopeful our nation's Fourth of July celebration this year will not be tarnished by the removal of a child from this land of freedom, to a land of gross violence and extensively documented human rights' violations.

Armando Gutierrez

As any other organization has the right to its own views or political beliefs, the FBI would only have an interest in a group that advocates violence or crosses the line into criminal activity.

Laura Eimiller

Family violence has no home in Collin County. When you see someone in a crisis and then can help them rebuild their lives...it's a wonderful feeling to empower them again.

Tonia Cunningham

Peace is not the absence of conflict but the presence of creative alternatives for responding to conflict - alternatives to passive or aggressive responses, alternatives to violence.

Dorothy Thompson

So far we have been in a phase of protest that in general was less explosive because there has been a strong coalition between unions and students. If divisions emerge, it would create a very high risk of violence, chaos and police violence.

François Dubet

My obligation is to secure the safety of students. The flags were being flagrantly misused to incite violence.

Tom Stumpf

Violence is learned behavior, ... That's part of the message of the Week Without Violence. It has to do with people not properly raising their kids; not properly supervising them.

William Lawler

Violence against minorities has increasingly become a problem in Serbia today. Serbia cannot hope to move closer towards the European Union unless it starts taking these attacks a lot more seriously.

Holly Cartner

When food becomes scarce, refugees often turn to desperate measures to feed themselves and their families. We are particularly worried about the health of the refugee population, domestic violence and refugees resorting to illegal employment or even to prostitution, just to put enough food on the table.

Antonio Guterres

Just the whole idea of what drives people to violence and if we know about it maybe we can prevent it. It's interesting. And these people live among us.

Calista Flockhart

Violence against women can end only when the culprits get punished.

Mukhtar Mai

That threat has affected everyone's coverage. We talk about safety all the time. We do special training. Because of the danger of being caught up in sectarian violence or being kidnapped, we have to have these very rigid restrictions on how people work.

David Schlesinger

Images of violence confirm stereotypes that people have of the Muslim world. People on both sides of the issue have acted very irresponsibly, which has caused the escalation of the issue.

Rabiah Ahmed

We found the event to be a unique way to reach the young adult population in Routt County to raise awareness about sexual violence.

Diane Moore

It's an attempt to sabotage the process set in motion, ... a silver lining has started to appear in the dark clouds of violence.

Farooq Abdullah

This type of random violence is repulsive, and it must not be allowed to go unpunished.

Kweisi Mfume

They also wanted more violence, so in the end they wanted more sex and violence.

Theresa Maggio

An end to the ceasefire would naturally mean resumption of violence. But there is still some hope that the Maoists will continue with their unilateral ceasefire for some time.

Yubaraj Ghimire

The mother had a history of domestic violence.

Robert Fischer

This bill will be challenged as unconstitutional. (The original statute) is drafted for pornography. (Unlike pornography,) violence is a protected form of speech.

Scott Sabey

It think [acceptance levels] sort of swings back and forth. Like in the 60s there was a lot more freedom with sex that doesn't exist today. Language has gotten pushed a bit farther and violence is way far out.

Bob Saget

It's hard to even let your kids out because you don't know if they'll ever come back to you. The violence just keeps escalating.

Adrian Williams

I'm very relieved about the low cost in human terms with violence virtually stopping after our arrival, low cost in lives to INTERFET and our adversaries.

Peter Cosgrove

This is not how one stops violence and this is not how one wants to make peace. This is one who really wants to fight us, and we'll have to defend ourselves with every possible means.

Uzi Landau

There is hope out here for victims of family violence, but I can help someone who doesn't call. I urge anyone who feels they are a victim of family violence to contact me, immediately.

Vickie Horton

He never hold arms at all. We grew up in a Christian home. We don't believe in violence. We don't believe in fighting.

Daniel Kayee

Whatever facts we got wrong, we apologize for. I've expressed regret for the loss of life and the violence that put American troops in harm's way. I'm getting a lot of angry e-mail about that, and I understand it.

Mark Whitaker

As is often the case with criminal violence, there is a huge disjuncture between what people believe is the case and what is actually the case.

Andrew Mack

Protecting our children must be everyone's top priority, ... This is a common-sense law that provides parents with the tools they need to protect their children from the effects of violence and graphic adult content.

Jennifer M. Granholm

It appears that the level of violence was well below the last election.

Allen Abney

There was definitely physical violence.

Robert Bailey

I'm disturbed by some of the levity I've heard surrounding this case. What we're talking about here is a severe case of domestic violence, and it's time we started taking this issue more seriously.

Mike Sanders

I think the violence will continue. Alas, we have learned not to believe that deliverance is around the corner. We are at the end of year three of this war and every hope that the violence has subside, has been betrayed.

Fouad Ajami

Road map to get out of the violence.

Javier Solana

[Israeli and Palestinian leaders blame each other for the continued violence.] Mr. Arafat is continuing his past policy of using violence against Israel and expecting at the same time of carrying on negotiations, mixing negotiations with violence, ... But he is going to be disappointed.

Moshe Arens

The Palestinians will make a huge mistake if they return to terrorism and violence. It has brought upon them disaster after disaster in the last five decades.

Tzahi Hanegbi

It is a sad testament of the absurdity of the ratings code and the completely illogical moral criteria that provide the underpinning for it, where any form of violence is perfectly acceptable for kids but sexuality continues to be the ultimate taboo.

Robert Lantos

Violence is a tool of the ignorant.

Flip Wilson

Any time you have a home where there's severe violence, there can be damage. There was a concern.

Marissa Gonzales

Jordan is slamming the door in the face of a small, but desperate group of people, who have seen their relatives murdered in Baghdad. Jordan should not treat Iraqi Palestinians fleeing persecution more harshly than other Iraqis fleeing violence, who have generally been allowed to enter Jordan.

Bill Frelick

We were all responsible in one way or another for the political violence that took place during the polls.

Faure Gnassingbe

I express my firmest condemnation of this new act of violence that, added with other cruel gestures carried out in that tormented country, does not help pacification or renewal.

Carlo Azeglio Ciampi

The goal of the government was to get all the leaders of the Black Panther Party in jail so that they could be killed systematically through prison violence, and that way they could stop what was a very powerful and evolving movement.

James Cromwell

It's a case that had everything, ... There's multiple murders, there's a famous former football player who had become an actor, there are drugs, there's sex, there's violence, there's interracial marriage.

Todd Boyd

We are on red alert. All state commissioners of police are under instructions to monitor developments and prevent any violence.

Haz Iwendi

The political process will become meaningful only if level of violence and support to cross-border terrorism comes down and those who are supporting it must distance themselves from this deviant activity.

C. Uday Bhaskar

(Furrow) may have acted alone when he took his gun to target those Jewish children, ... but it's the (Aryan Nations') teachings of violence against Jews and the fear of Jews among its members that directly led him to do this.

Morris Dees

The recent spate of gun violence in Toronto is something that is of concern to the federal government.

Alex Swann

Positions harden, people get more frustrated and they have less to lose and people are already turning to violence.

Ronnie Mamba

With over 10 million inhabitants, Moscow is the largest city in the Russian Federation. Yet it does not have a single shelter for victims of violence against women. Even a small shelter would send the right signal; that the authorities are willing to protect women from violence in the family.

Nicola Duckworth

The safest thing to say is with narcotics, you get violence. Amongst young people, there is this perception that violence is the answer to their problems.

James West

But equating Islam and Muslims with violence and terror is not new. It has been going on for a long time.

Chandra Muzaffar

And it was to this city, whenever I went home, that I always knew I must return, for it was mistress of one's wildest hopes, protector of one's deepest privacies. It was half insane with its noise, violence, and decay, but it gave one the tender security of fulfillment.

Willie Morris

It is very difficult to prevent violence at a protest where a huge number of people are gathered, especially when they move from one place to another.

Ajirawid Subarnbhesaj

These groups claim domestic violence is gender-equal, ... The research shows these claims are false. We need to reject myths pushed by fathers' rights groups as they try to change family law.

Michael Flood

That is a great victory for us. Because it was clear that the government and they showed in their closing argument they really wanted to equate us with violent change. And it is clear that the jury understood our message of non-violence.

Saint Patrick

The rabbi did not claim any responsibility for the violence. The demonstrators never apologized for it, and never regretted it.

Howard Bass

It's unacceptable what happened on Saturday evening at the airport. Violence is unacceptable for those who claim to be Inter fans. We cannot accept that disappointment turns to violence.

Giacinto Facchetti

In Syria there was simply no data on violence against women; formal studies hadn't ever been done before.

Shirin Shukri

Andy Warhol was a pioneer of looking at society as this machine. Warhol looked, in a good and bad way, at the power of media and celebrity images. He looked at violence, and he looked at fame. He looked at consumerism. He was looking at reality like a film, and editing it. His art is more about the idea than the execution of it.

Francesco Bonami

Hamas is a terrorist organization, should disarm, and renounce violence. We will not talk to any elected officials who are members of a terrorist group.

Fred Jones

Muhammad does not believe in violence, Muhammad does not believe in punishment. He is the role model of all Muslims, and he was defamed and attacked in an unfair, inaccurate way.

Hussam Ayloush

We all can take a rational position and denounce violence but it's a bit more difficult to try to figure out why it has such a hold on us. It's too easy to say bad people do bad things. I'm interested in the ways modern society is horrified and fascinated by violence at the same time.

Kevin Goodman

Some do it (enter the data), others don't, and some don't believe they have the authority, even though the (Violence Against Women Act) already requires it. I know that in one case, a woman visited five counties to enter her (order for protection). This is a state of emergency. It is one of safety. It is one of life and death.

Lonna Stevens

One hundred percent of the time, no plea bargain, no bail, you're going to the penitentiary -- that will change the atmosphere in this culture of violence the president talks about.

Wayne Lapierre

We urge the government of National Unity to continue to take steps to stop the violence, to promote reconciliation and to maintain momentum on implementation of the comprehensive peace agreement.

Tom Casey

Once we get past the immediate repercussions of yesterday's violence, we will see things stabilize again.

Robert Ford

We refuse this resolution, ... and we want to address a very clear message that this resolution will lead to more violence, and the American Congress will hold the responsibility.

Ahmed Qureia

We are proud to support Hubbard House in its mission to provide services to domestic violence victims and their families.

Terry Ward

They advocate violence and hate crimes. I don't think ignoring it is the solution.

Megan Gallagher

The Congress can pass it. The President can sign it. But this shameful law will not stand, ... We will challenge the constitutionality of this special- interest extravaganza in every court where the rights of gun violence victims are being threatened.

Dennis Henigan

A man with no history of violence, a man who's never served a day in custody before this case.

Frank Johnson

This billboard conveys to the students a disturbing message actively promoting gun violence, criminal behavior and gang affiliation, ... Placement of the billboard in this location at this time is an insensitive and reckless affront to the parents, school administrators and students seeking to improve their community.

Mike Antonovich

The editor of the newspaper and the government of Denmark have apologized. Why not accept these expressions of regret and move on? What is to be gained by the continuing violence and hysteria?

Irfan Husain

The increased number of domestic violence cases coming in through the LBH-APIK shows that women are becoming more aware that domestic violence is a crime and no longer something shameful to be hidden away.

Ratna Batara Munti

There is no reason to believe that foul play is involved, ... There were no signs of violence or defensive wounds.

Mike Winters

There's no competition of violence. It's just everybody coming out and having a good time, being out in the sun, meeting people from other places.

Julian Smith

BoP can't control how the justice department handles the case against the accused killer of Scott Williams or when the judicial system will move the case forward. But BoP can control how it honors the memory of Scott Williams and protects staff and our communities from potential future violence.

Bryan Lowry

Any development at Government House will move the market. (If there's violence), the index will likely head down to 700 quickly.

Pichai Lertsupongkit

Masks have a tortured history in the United States, creating fear and fear of physical violence on the part of one group of our city on another.

Alvin Hellerstein

To take steps to curb the incitement, curb the violence.

Martin Indyk

PETA has no involvement with alleged ALF or ELF actions. PETA does not support terrorism. PETA does not support violence.

Jeffrey Kerr

But it struck me that the extreme violence and cruelty of the English Civil War had gone understated.

Simon Schama

We will not give in to pressure from any system that has imposed violence and terror on us. This is the message we want to send.

Manuel Marulanda

There was no violence, no aggression and we find imposing a banning order would be disproportionate on this occasion.

Howard Morgan

The value set by her people on the freedom and sanctity of the individual, on justice and fair play, on mercy and tenderness towards the weak, and their dislike of lawless violence and their capacity to tolerate, forget and forgive have been, for all England's past mistakes and faults, a very real factor in human evolution.

Arthur Bryant

In the context of war, especially a chaotic war, there is the inevitable targeting of marginal groups. There is a free-roaming sense of violence and a mob mentality.

Paula Ettelbrick

Toys that glorify violence encourage children to act out that violence -- violence which appears fun, cool and amusing.

Daphne White

Our interest is really in Third World development. I believe that it's essential to solving the problems of poverty, violence, and environment, to have better education.

Seymour Papert

Due to the cultural and wealth gap between the Chinese women and their foreign husbands, their marriages are often prone to various misunderstandings and conflicts. As many of the Chinese wives lack the self-protection awareness and are too shy to tell their sad stories to others, they often face escalating violence and maltreatment from their foreign husbands.

Ren Yuanzheng

When Al Gore went to the Congress, he was (a) fairly conservative, Southern Democratic congressman from rural Tennessee. But as he learned more about national issues and he saw the tragedies happening because of gun violence all across the country, he's grown.

Mike Barnes

Based on what people I've talked to have said, I think that threats are fairly commonplace, but rarely escalate into violence.

Patrick Crimmins

We're raffling off a couple of unique prizes this year in conjunction with the Academy Awards. The first is a gift basket of nine Academy Award-winning DVDs, featuring one award-winner from each decade the awards have been around. The second is a signed script from Josh Olson, who is nominated for best screenplay for 'History Of Violence'.

Kirsten Turner

I can't stand violence. I can't picture myself doing anything like that paper says.

Linda Wagner

This will renew the cycle of violence.

Ahmed Qurie

That kind of violence leaves a deep scar.

Carrie Shelver

I am a perpetrator, a criminal offender. I just have not been arrested yet. But there are people out there who need to be arrested to truly understand that what they are doing is a criminal act of violence, before it's too late.

Masaru Suzuki

Lesbians in South Africa face abuse and violence simply for not fitting social expectations of how women should look and act.

Jessica Stern

A person who works on an anti-violence committee should set a personal example, ... Of course I denounce anyone who commits illegitimate acts.

Gideon Ezra

We have made significant increases in providing shelters, hot lines and restraining orders to protect battered spouses and mandatory arrest for domestic violence incidents, ... And the largest beneficiaries have been men. The biggest drop is in women killing husbands.

James Alan Fox

On our part we have pledged that there will be no acts of violence.

Anton Balasingham

It's a policy of the office to proceed on a domestic violence case regardless of the victim's wishes.

Michael Edmondson

Not only do parents provide the safe harbor teenagers need in an era of increasing violence and chaos, but evidence suggests this generation is more comfortable and trusting in authority.

Chip Walker

(Domestic violence) is such a dark social issue, we opted to have a fun event.

Debbie Andrews

It's a little misplaced to say that [forming a government] somehow solves the sectarian problem or any of the other really difficult challenges on the ground. It will probably help some to have a new government, but we shouldn't be under any illusions that the day after, the insurgency will put down its guns, or the sectarian violence is going to stop.

Phebe Marr

Gun violence is on the rise in many of our cities today, and illegal gun trafficking from neighboring states is a big part of the problem. We need a coordinated effort to ensure partnership and cooperation with prosecution, community programs and crime prevention. We need leadership from the federal, state and local levels, as well as help from our neighboring states.

Deval Patrick

He pulled out a paperback of Dr. King's book, 'Stride Toward Freedom,' about the Montgomery bus boycott. He said, 'Read this.' He was bright enough to realize violence was not the answer.

Jim Zwerg

Children will watch anything, and when a broadcaster uses crime and violence and other shoddy devices to monopolize a child's attention, it's worse than taking candy from a baby. It is taking precious time from the process of growing up.

Newton N. Minow

We know there is a possibility of people yelling insults and disagreement. We are not anticipating any acts of violence or hate.

Maria Jimenez

May 6, 2003, was a day about control and violence.

Jay Plotkin

This is a fight over power, prestige and patronage. Violence has broken out when the legal outcome is unclear, which it is now.

David Pollock

One of the sad truths I have come to see is that for this kind of mass violence, you don't need monsters. Ordinary people will do just fine. This thing lives in all of us.

Craig Etcheson

I want to be on live TV with the prime minister. I want to explain what we think about the violence.

Ahmed Akkari

If the constitution is passed against the will of the Iraqi people, it will increase the violence.

Salih Mutlaq

It (the attack) was an un-Islamic act. No religion justifies violence as a means to resolve differences in faiths.

Din Syamsuddin

It's a tricky thing. There is a lot of gang violence in Puerto Rico, a lot of young hotheads. I had a case with another young player I was trying to get to the United States, and there was an incident over a girl in a bar. They threatened to kill him, and they killed his brother instead. It's a difficult situation over there.

Aubin Goporo

This case is important because it puts again, into our law, one more way to stop that kind of violence and domestic terrorism against providers and against patients who need services.

Karen Pearl

We are trying to make the streets safer from this kind of violence.

Anne E. Schwartz

We want participation from each of the 11 states in the original Confederacy. We invite all those committed to carrying the South out of the dark past of racial violence and conflict, away from fear and segregation and impoverishing lifestyles to share this journey with us.

Susan Glisson

[Moments later Tyson was asked if he would denounce violence against women, and again one of his handlers handled the inquiry.] He doesn't have to! ... I won't sit here and let you disrespect him like that!

John Horne

Non-violence is the policy of the vegetable kingdom.

H. G. Wells

Each day, 10 children and teens are killed by firearms, and that is 10 too many, ... However, it is a significant decrease from four years earlier. This indicates that violence prevention efforts are showing results.

Donna Shalala

You who are taking this responsibility must show unprecedented courage and leadership. You must place the interests of your people first above all other concerns only then will this process, this attempt to break cycle of misery and destitution conflict and violence stand a chance of success.

Lakhdar Brahimi

The drop of rain maketh a hole in the stone, not by violence, but by oft falling.

Hugh Latimer

These toys and games suggest that shooting, killing and maiming are fun, and violence is a harmless, entertaining pastime, ... This merchandising of violence to children is a totally new phenomenon.

Daphne White

When people say there is too much violence in [my books], what they are saying is there is too much reality in life.

Joyce Carol Oates

There is a fear of there being violence in any kind of a venue that has large numbers of people. And sports has always been one of the areas with the visibility and media attention that's given that it's always a logical and potential place for terrorist violence.

Lynn Jamieson

Hate language in the school hallways is huge. These students are too often the target of name-calling, violence and worse.

Judy Shepard

The presence of these violent groups outside the Muslim Brotherhood proves that there is no place for those who support violence inside.

Sobhe Saleh

We came in last night, and I haven't heard of any violence.

Leslie Roberts

The strategy of putting justice on hold for an elusive peace settlement has emboldened human rights abusers on both sides of the conflict. This approach has fueled a pervasive culture of impunity that has led to ever-increasing acts of violence against civilians.

Peter Takirambudde

We will not accept violence or incitement.

Dan Harel

Given the drugs (Lewis) had taken and his propensity for violence, it made sense that Joe took a gun with him.

Roger Falk
