The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral, begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy. Instead of diminishing evil it multiplies it. Through violence you may murder the liar, but you cannot murder the lie, not establish the truth. Through violence you may murder the hater, but you do not murder hate. In fact violence merely increases the hate...so it goes. Picturning violence for violence multiples violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Darkness cannot drive out darkness, only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate only love can do that.... -Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
