It is immoral because it seeks to humiliate the opponent rather than win his understanding; it seeks to annihilate rather than to convert.—Martin Luther King
Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent.-- Salvor Hardin
The glory of Christianity is to conquer by forgiveness. --William Blake
Love is the only force capable of transforming an enemy into friend. --Martin Luther King Jr.
