“Violence never really deals with the basic evil of the situation. Violence may murder the murderer, but it doesn’t murder murder. Violence may murder the liar, but it doesn’t murder lie; it doesn’t establish truth. Violence may even murder the dishonest man, but it doesn’t murder dishonesty.

This is the ultimate weakness of violence: It multiplies evil and violence in the universe. It doesn’t solve any problems.”
