“It's often been said, "Violence never solved anything." The simple truth is that when you are slammed up against the wall and the knife is at your throat, when a circle of teenagers is kicking you as you curl into a ball on the sidewalk, or when the man walks into your office building or school with a pair of guns and starts shooting, only violence, or the reasonable threat of violence, is going to save your life. In the extreme moment, only force can stop force.” MenSaidMomentsSchoolForceSimpleWalksViolenceBuildingHe ManWallTruth IsOfficeGunBallsThreatExtremesCirclesTeenagerShootingReasonablePairsThroatKnivesGun ControlKickingCurlsSidewalkSimple TruthsOffice Buildings Author:Rory Miller

“A strong body makes the mind strong. As to the species of exercises, I advise the gun. While this gives moderate exercise to the body, it gives boldness, enterprise and independence to the mind. Games played with the ball, and others of that nature, are too violent for the body and stamp no character on the mind.

“A Panda walks into a cafe. He orders a sandwich, eats it, then draws a gun and fires two shots into the air. "Why?" asks the confused waiter, as the panda makes toward the exit. The panda produces a badly punctuated wildlife annual and tosses it over his shoulder. "I'm a Panda," he says, at the door. "Look it up." The waiter turns to the relevant entry, and, sure enough, finds an explanation. Panda. Large black and white bear-like mammal, native to China. Eats, shoots and leaves.” LooksTwoEnoughOrderTurnsAsksBlackWhiteWalksFireDoorsAirProduceBearsDrawsGunShotsChinaShouldersExplanationConfusedNativeRelevantBlack And WhiteSandwichesWildlifeExitEntryAnnualsTossWaiterMammalsCafesPandas Author:Lynne Truss

“I won the argument against the knife that night, but barely. I had some other good ideas around that time--about how jumping off a building or blowing my brains out with a gun might stop the suffering. but something about spending a night with a knife in my hand did it. The next morning I called my friend Susan as the sun came up, begged her to help me. I don't think a woman in the whole history of my family had ever done that before, had ever sat in the middle of the road like that and said, in the middle of her life, "I cannot walk another step further--somebody has to help me.” ThinkingSaidIdeasDoneWholeHelpingHandsMightNightSufferingNextWalksBrainStepsMorningSunMiddleBuildingGunMy FriendsArgumentMy FamilySpendingSatHelp MeKnivesGood IdeasJumpingJumping OffMiddle Of The Road Book:Eat Pray Love 10th-Anniversary Edition: One Woman's Search for Everything Across Italy, India and Indonesia Source: Eat Pray Love 10th-Anniversary Edition: One Woman's Search for Everything Across Italy, India and Indonesia
