Famous Danny Nichols Quotes

“The first step in solving a problem is awareness. The second step is getting to the root of the problem, not just treating the symptoms. In our modern society we are obsessed with treating symptoms of bullying that have been going on for thousands of years. Will we ever go back? Will we ever realize that to live and let live doesn't just apply to humans? Will we ever stop bullying nature, other species, and ourselves? I doubt it, but now that you're aware of what we've done, what we are doing, and what our true nature is, what will you do?; because the third step in solving a problem is action.”

“Almost everyone will proclaim they are against bullying. No one likes a bully, right? At the same time, most of those same people will state the slogan of the day, "I respect the police.", or, "I respect the police, but...". To that I ask, "What is it you respect about them?" Do you respect that they'd shoot your dog or child in a heartbeat? Do you respect them leaving thousands of dogs in hot cars to die? Do you respect them shooting hundreds of thousands of dogs? (10,000 a year for 20 years would be hundreds of thousands!). Do you respect that there are cops in prison for murder, rape, and child molestation who are still collecting their pensions? I could probably make this list 100 pages long if I wanted to, but I hope you get the point. The point is that when we say we respect bullies and bullying, we are part of the problem, not the solution.”
