“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, 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.”
