Violence Quotes

“Maturity is the ability to control anger and settle differences without violence or destruction. The mature person can face unpleasantness, frustration, discomfort and defeat without collapsing or complaining. He/she knows he cannot have everything his/her own way every time.

I suspect that this is the reason that personal and school property violence is increasing more rapidly than school burglary and dropout rates.”
