Violence is born of the desire to escape oneself.
“I know how much you grieve over those who are under your care: those you try to help and fail, those you cannot help. Have faith in God and remember that He will is His own way and in His own time ...”
“Our actions are like ships which we may watch set out to sea, and not know when or with what cargo they will return to port.”
“But death is not easy, and life can win by simulating it.”
“Violence is a disease, a disease that corrupts all who use it regardless of the cause.”
“A weapon does not decide whether or not to kill. A weapon is a manifestation of a decision that has already been made.”
“Extreme violence has a way of preventing us from seeing the interests it serves.”
