He who seeks to understand violence belongs to no country, no religion, no political party, no particular system.

What matters to him is the complete understanding of humanity.

According to one school, violence is found inside a man; according to another, it is the result of his social and cultural heritage.

Neither viewpoint interests us: they have no importance;

what is important is the way that we are violent, not the reason for it.

~Krishnamurti
