Incitement Quotes

“When there is silence, Give your voice. When there is darkness, Shine your light. When there is desperation, Offer hope.”

“التحريض شيطانٌ ذو لسانٍ مُلوّن وثقبٍ أسود. ينسج بالهمسات والصراخ مسخًا، مُثيرًا للمشاعر ومؤججا للخلاف حتى بين أكثر الحلفاء ثقة. من يقع تحت سحره الأسود غالبًا ما يجد نفسه تائهًا، منغمسًا في متاهة من الفوضى، حيث تُغرق المشاعر المُلتهبة العقل. جيني حسين علي Incitement is a demon with a colorful tongue and a black heart. He weaves a monstrous web of whispers and shouts, stirring up emotions and inciting discord even among the most trusted allies. Those who fall under his dark spell often find themselves lost, immersed in a maze of chaos, with reason drowned out by raging, fiery emotions. Jenny hussien ali”

“Political agitation, by the passions it arouses or the convictions it engenders, may in fact stimulate men to the violation of the law. Detestation of existing policies is easily transformed into forcible resistance of the authority which puts them in execution, and it would be folly to disregard the causal relation between the two. Yet to assimilate agitation, legitimate as such, with direct incitement to violent resistance, is to disregard the tolerance of all methods of political agitation which in normal times is a safeguard of free government.”

The human individual usually lives far within his limits.”
