More From Emma Goldman

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'm concerned about a better world. i'm concerned about justice; i'm concerned about brotherhood; i'm concerned about truth. and when one is concerned about that, he can never advocate violence. for through violence you may murder a murderer, but you can't murder murder. through violence you may murder a liar, but you can't establish truth. through violence you may murder a hater, but you can't murder hate through violence. darkness cannot put out darkness; only light can do that.
Motivational Hate Liars
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, nor establish the truth. through violence you may murder the hater, but you do not murder hate. in fact, violence merely increases hate... darkness cannot drive out darkness: only light can do that. hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that.
Peace Kings Fear
I feel that non-violence is really the only way that we can follow because violence is just so self-defeating. a riot ends up creating many more problems for the negro community than it solved. we can through violence burn down a building, but you can't establish justice. you can murder a murderer, but you can't murder murder through violence. you can murder a hater, but you can't murder hate. and what we're trying to get rid of is hate, injustice, and all of these other things that continue the long night of man's inhumanity to man.
Hate Night Men
A guy's calling to say he's failing algebra ii. just as a point of practice, i say, kill yourself. a woman calls and says her kids won't behave. without missing a beat, i tell her, kill yourself. a man calls to say his car won't start. kill yourself. a woman calls to ask what time the late movie starts. kill yourself. she asks, "isn't this 555-1327? is this the moorehouse cineplex? i say, kill yourself. kill yourself. kill yourself.

From a very young age, militarism and trying to solve the world's problems through militarism is something that has always resonated with me as being a bad idea.
