Petra Quotes

It is not only the prisoners who grow coarse and hardened from corporeal punishment, but those as well who perpetrate the act or are present to witness it Picture Quote #1

Thou shall not be a perpetrator, thou shall not be a victim, and thou shall never, but never, be a bystander Picture Quote #1

We cannot lightly allow the perpetrator of a serious crime to go free simply because that person believed his actions were reasonable and necessary to prevent some perceived harm Picture Quote #1

When they criticise the government when it tries to prevent violence and punish perpetrators of that violence we take the position that they can go hang Picture Quote #1

There is no greater tyranny than that which is perpetrated under the shield of the law and in the name of justice Picture Quote #1

Inflation is not caused by the actions of private citizens, but by the government: by an artificial expansion of the money supply required to support deficit spending. No private embezzlers or bank robbers in history have ever plundered people’s savings on a scale comparable to the plunder perpetrated by the fiscal policies of statist governments Picture Quote #1

Forgiveness does not mean condoning what has been done. Forgiving means abandoning your right to pay back the perpetrator in his own coin Picture Quote #1

Our crimes, for which we are responsible: as taxpayers, for failing to provide massive reparations, for granting refuge and immunity to the perpetrators, and for allowing the terrible facts to be sunk deep in the memory hole. All of this is of great significance, as it has been in the past Picture Quote #1

The alternate domination of one faction over another, sharpened by the spirit of revenge natural to party dissension, which in different ages and countries has perpetrated the most horrid enormities, is itself a frightful despotism. But this leads at length to a more formal and permanent despotism Picture Quote #1

In perpetrating a revolution, there are two requirements: someone or something to revolt against and someone to actually show up and do the revolting. Dress is usually casual and both parties may be flexible about time and place, but if either faction fails to attend, the whole enterprise is likely to come off badly Picture Quote #1

History will have to record that the greatest tragedy of this period of social transition was not the strident clamor of the bad people, but the appalling silence of the good people. Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly. He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it. He who accepts evil without protesting against it is really cooperating with it Picture Quote #1

What --- you don’t believe in true love? Petra asked. The kind that can then be parlayed into awesome merchandising opportunities? - Beauty Queens Picture Quote #1

If we know how much passive violence we perpetrate against one another, we will understand why there is so much physical violence plaguing societies and the world Picture Quote #1

There are some things I don’t like, about which I think, well, that’s me. But coriander is a giant hoax perpetrated by a perverted society Picture Quote #1

In the face of this approaching disaster, it behooves men and women not yet overcome by war madness to raise their voice of protest, to call the attention of the people to the crime and outrage which are about to be perpetrated on them Picture Quote #1

When you’re the victim of the behavior, it’s black and white; when you’re the perpetrator, there are a million shades of gray Picture Quote #1

It has to come out of the chain of command, because the chain of command has really become impotent. The chain of command is vested in protecting itself, and so often, the perpetrator of the assault is in the chain of command Picture Quote #1

In order to escape accountability for his crimes, the perpetrator does everything in his power to promote forgetting. If secrecy fails, the perpetrator attacks the credibility of his victim. If he cannot silence her absolutely, he tries to make sure no one listens Picture Quote #1

Worry is the secret weapon perpetrated upon us by the dark forces of the world that lurk in the shape of fear, uncertainty, confusion, and loss. We, on the other hand, have our own secret weapon against these incorporeal fiends. It is laughter Picture Quote #1

Christianity has kept itself going for centuries on hope alone, and has perpetrated all manner of naughtiness in the meantime Picture Quote #1

A picture is a thing which requires as much knavery, as much malice, and as much vice as the perpetration of a crime. Make it untrue and add an accent of truth Picture Quote #1

Justice for the major perpetrators cannot be separated from the vindication of the rights of the individual victim Picture Quote #1

The absence and suppression of justice can only open the way for extremists to exploit such a condition to perpetrate acts of violence against innocents Picture Quote #1

Sane judgment abhors nothing so much as a picture perpetrated with no technical knowledge, although with plenty of care and diligence Picture Quote #1

Judicial execution can never cancel or remove the atrocity it seeks to punish; it can only add a second atrocity to the original one... So long as one sees killing as wrong there is no need to waste time with the deterrent argument, since it would be nonsense to try to prevent a theoretical evil in the future by perpetrating an actual one in the present Picture Quote #1

May we be saved from evil thoughts and deed of enemies of world peace who find pleasure in creating havoc and perpetrating all forms of carnage Picture Quote #1

I think I wanted to write a book about the relationship between the victim and perpetrator in which the victim agrees to remain silent Picture Quote #1

The story of the Khazar Empire, as it slowly emerges from the past, begins to look like the most cruel hoax which history has ever perpetrated Picture Quote #1

I think the first step is to understand that forgiveness does not exonerate the perpetrator. Forgiveness liberates the victim. It’s a gift you give yourself Picture Quote #1

How often are the perpetrators of hate-crimes discovered to be self-loathing? Valued individuals do not strike out against strangers Picture Quote #1
