More From Hillary Clinton

We must realize that violence is not confined to physical violence. fear is violence, caste discrimination is violence, exploitation of others, however subtle, is violence, segregation is violence, thinking ill of others and condemning others are violence. in order to reduce individual acts of physical violence, we must work to eliminate violence at all levels, mental, verbal, personal, and social, including violence to animals, plants, and all other forms of life.
Fear Thinking Animal
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. violence may go to the point of murdering the hater, but it doesn’t murder hate. it may increase hate. it is always a descending spiral leading nowhere. this is the ultimate weakness of violence: it multiplies evil and violence in the universe. it doesn’t solve any problems.
Hate Liars Lying
I must remind you that starving a child is violence. suppressing a culture is violence. neglecting school children is violence. punishing a mother and her family is violence. discrimination against a working man is violence. ghetto housing is violence. ignoring medical need is violence. contempt for poverty is violence.

All violence is injustice. responding to violence with violence is injustice, not only to the other person but also to oneself. responding to violence with violence resolves nothing; it only escalates violence, anger and hatred. it is only with compassion that we can embrace and disintegrate violence. this is true in relationships between individuals as well as in relationships between nations.
Compassion Hatred Violence
We stand with israel as a jewish democratic state because we know that israel is born of firmly held values that we, as americans, share: a culture committed to justice, a land that welcomes the weary, a people devoted to tikkun olam. ... so america's commitment ... and my commitment to israel and israel's security is unshakeable. it is unshakeable. ... i am proud to say that no u.s. administration has done more in support of israel's security than ours. none. don't let anybody else tell you otherwise. it is a fact.
Commitment America Israel
The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral, begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy... in fact, violence merely increases hate. so it goes. returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars.

And what movies we saw! all the actors and actresses whose photographs i collected, with their look of eternity! their radiance, their eyes, their faces, their voices, the suavity of their movements! their clothes! even in prison movies, the stars shone in their prison clothes as if tailors had accompanied them in their downfall.

I think people today are very cynical. they need to bring other people down. reality television and tabloid magazines—never before did we need to see movie stars taking out their garbage. but all of a sudden, it's front-page news—trying to figure out who's dating whom, all that stuff. who cares?

Once upon a time, in some out of the way corner of that universe which is dispersed into numberless twinkling solar systems, there was a star upon which clever beasts invented knowing.
