Let us not forget that violence does not live alone and is not capable of living alone: it is necessarily interwoven with falsehood. Between them lies the most intimate, the deepest of natural bonds. Violence finds its only refuge in falsehood, falsehood its only support in violence. Any man who has once acclaimed violence as his method must inexorably choose falsehood as his principle. — Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn
The problem with writing what amounts to affirmation literature exclusively for the already-convinced is that your critical faculties tend to atrophy. When you never have to analyze opposing arguments, apply consistent standards, or consider how your moral framework should constrain your own ideological side, you get lazy. — Jeff Childers
