"The ultimate weakness of violence is that it is a descending spiral, begetting the very thing it seeks to destroy. Instead of diminishing evil, it multiplies it. Through violence you may murder the liar, but you cannot murder the lie, nor establish the truth. Through violence you may murder the hater, but you do not murder hate. In fact, violence merely increases hate. So it goes. Returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars."

Hello, lovely tribute for 9/11.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE the mural. Is that near ground zero.
ReplyDeleteHello, Colleen. I took the photo in 2003 when I visited New York and it was while I was walking around the city. I can't remember exactly where it was and whether it's still there...
DeleteNice photos.
