Heart Force One: Need No Gun to Defend Society Quotes

“Shake The World Savaşçı (The Sonnet) Shake the world savaşçı, The world is only a reflection of you. Break the mold o kahraman, In a civilized time these molds won't do. Your story is the one of a warrior, Not the one fighting with weapon. You are the hero without arms, Your power is your determination. One person can end a war, If they give all to the making of peace. You are the answer to the world's prayers, But you must keep your prejudice on leash. Go sleepless, starving and unappraised if needed. Be the guerra of inclusion and unite the divided.”

“Someone said to me the other day, 'you speak of peace because you are afraid to fight'. I smiled and replied, you are absolutely right, I am terrified of fighting, you know why, because if I raise my hands at someone, there'll be no trace of them left. It's ridiculously easily to take life, especially for a biologist with martial arts training, but what makes a human is the capacity to give life.”

“Revolution never happens because it is acceptable, it happens because everything else turns unacceptable. World War 3 has already begun, but unlike the previous times, it is not a war amongst nations, rather it's a war within nations between the forces of inclusion and reason, and the forces of separatism and superstition. And this World War will continue much longer than the previous two times, for this time, it's a war against the elements of inhumanity within our society, within ourselves, which unlike the previous times, cannot be treated by simply shooting down. Guns kill segregationists, not segregation. So this time, and now on, the revolution and all the future revolutions must continue without resorting to violence. I am not talking about simply nonviolence, I am talking about having an actual and utter repulsiveness towards violence. This is the fundamental requirement of a civilized revolution. Show strength through your resolve, not through the eagerness for violence. If a terrorist has a gun to your head, don't fight, stare down at them till they drop the gun (metaphorically speaking).”
