Sir one more comment like that and I will strangle you with my microphone wire!

Well before September 11, it was understood that with modern technology, the rich and powerful will lose their near monopoly of the means of violence and can expect to suffer atrocities on home soil.

I sometimes just don’t like to see the Ultimate Fighting. I just find it, as a martial artist, I just find it too violent.

War is never a solution; it is an aggravation.

When we think of the major threats to our national security, the first to come to mind are nuclear proliferation, rogue states and global terrorism. But another kind of threat lurks beyond our shores, one from nature, not humans – an avian flu pandemic.

I might talk about killing people, but that doesn’t mean I do it.

Hatred is inveterate anger.

So many people live with anger and unforgiveness, and many of them are Christians.

You never need an argument against the use of violence, you need an argument for it.

Meditation can help us embrace our worries, our fear, our anger; and that is very healing. We let our own natural capacity of healing do the work.

Anger is like those ruins which smash themselves on what they fall.

Anger makes dull men witty, but it keeps them poor.

The Iranian regime, in my mind, is the single most enduring threat to stability and peace in the Middle East.

Anger is never without a reason, but seldom with a good one.

If I cry, it’s because I’m very angry and I can’t do anything about it because I’ve run into a dead end. That’s when the tears would come down.

I know you are here to kill me. Shoot, coward, you are only going to kill a man.

I have long understood that losing always comes with the territory when you wander into the gambling business, just as getting crippled for life is an acceptable risk in the linebacker business. They both are extremely violent sports, and pain is part of the bargain. Buy the ticket, take the ride.

Obviously, there’s a part of me that takes the world of violence and death very seriously. However, when it comes to protection, or when it comes to just the skill of shooting… I’ve gone to the range with sniper rifles and things like that.

Anger is the enemy of non-violence and pride is a monster that swallows it up.

Guilt for being rich, and guilt thinking that perhaps love and peace isn’t enough and you have to go and get shot or something.

You will kill 10 of our men, and we will kill 1 of yours, and in the end it will be you who tire of it.

We are looking for happiness and running after it in such a way that creates anger, fear and discrimination. So when you attend a retreat, you have a chance to look at the deep roots of this pollution of the collective energy that is unwholesome.

Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent.

It is impossible for you to be angry and laugh at the same time. Anger and laughter are mutually exclusive and you have the power to choose either.

The dropping of bombs on people – isn’t that terrorism?

Judge Afiuni has suffered enough. She has been subject to acts of violence and humiliations to undermine her human dignity. I am convinced that she must be set free.

Wars have never hurt anybody except the people who die.

We will stand up for our friends in the world. And one of the most important friends is the State of Israel. My administration will be steadfast in support Israel against terrorism and violence, and in seeking the peace for which all Israelis pray.

I’ll beat him so bad he’ll need a shoehorn to put his hat on.

A sword never kills anybody; it is a tool in the killer’s hand.

Even today we raise our hand against our brother… We have perfected our weapons, our conscience has fallen asleep, and we have sharpened our ideas to justify ourselves as if it were normal we continue to sow destruction, pain, death. Violence and war lead only to death.

To be angry is to revenge the faults of others on ourselves.

Every once in a while, I get mad. ‚The Lorax‘ came out of my being angry. The ecology books I’d read were dull… In ‚The Lorax,‘ I was out to attack what I think are evil things and let the chips fall where they might.

Hate crime is not new in the United States.

Words can be said in bitterness and anger, and often there seems to be an element of truth in the nastiness. And words don’t go away, they just echo around.

The threat and use of violence is stimulating nuclear proliferation along with jihadi terrorism.

Deliberate violence is more to be quenched than a fire.

There ought to be one day – just one – when there is open season on senators.

At one time, I was very angry. I even treated fashion like a kind of crusade: you were either with us or against us, that kind of feeling. Now I know we need ideas, not kicking down a door.

I exaggerate when I’m angry, but I’ve never gone around telling people things that aren’t true about me.

Violence is both unavoidable and unjustifiable.

Anger cannot be dishonest.

Violent means will give violent freedom. That would be a menace to the world and to India herself.

Why, I’d horse-whip you if I had a horse.

While I understand the passions and the anger that arise over the death of Michael Brown, giving into that anger by looting or carrying guns, and even attacking the police, only serves to raise tensions and stir chaos.

I wanted to write a book that talked about the emotions of children, which is the rainbow. We all have moods. We talk about being blue when we’re sad, and being yellow when we’re cowards, and when we’re mad, we’re red.

Even the Soviet Union, with its huge nuclear arsenal, was a threat that could be deterred by the prospect of retaliation. But suicide bombers cannot be deterred. They can only be annihilated – preemptively and unilaterally, if necessary.

It is violence when we use a sharp word, when we make a gesture to brush away a person. So violence isn’t merely organized butchery in the name of God, in the name of society or country. Violence is much more subtle, much deeper.

When you call yourself an Indian or a Muslim or a Christian or a European or anything else, you are being violent. Do you see why it is violent? Because you are separating yourself from the rest of mankind. When you separate yourself by belief, by nationality, by tradition, it breeds violence.

In the ’70s, terrorism was much more serious, in that many more people got killed.

It is always a strain when people are being killed. I don’t think anybody has held this job who hasn’t felt personally responsible for those being killed.

Al Qaeda is still a threat. We cannot pretend somehow that because Barack Hussein Obama got elected as president, suddenly everything is going to be OK.

My family kinda hit the skids. We were experiencing poverty at that point. We all got a job, where the whole family had to work as security guards and janitors. And I just got angry.

Do not meddle in the affairs of Wizards, for they are subtle and quick to anger.

The former colonies, in Latin America in particular, have a better chance than ever before to overcome centuries of subjugation, violence and foreign intervention, which they have so far survived as dependencies with islands of luxury in a sea of misery.

Sooner or later, jihadist-style terror and WMD are going to come together and the consequences could be horrendous.

Intolerance is itself a form of violence and an obstacle to the growth of a true democratic spirit.

An unjust law is itself a species of violence. Arrest for its breach is more so.

The most violent appetites in all creatures are lust and hunger; the first is a perpetual call upon them to propagate their kind, the latter to preserve themselves.

The world is too violent right now.

The more violent the storm, the quicker it passes.
