Violent Quotes

Puffballs of vanity when they’re not being absurdly violent; wretchedly unhappy in their mental prisons and too stubborn to open the door and escape Picture Quote #1

We’re both [with Mark Wahlberg] capable of being sarcastic, vicious, violent lunatics, but we hold each other in check, appeal to the best aspects of each other Picture Quote #1

You can’t blame a victim for being under the influence when there is a violent act [happening to them]. These are two separate things Picture Quote #1

I thought, how do you confuse violent Russian mobsters? Well, by being silly! Picture Quote #1

I want to poke holes in the erroneous beliefs about what fame provides. It won’t raise your self-esteem, it won’t create profound connection, it’s not going to heal your childhood traumas, it’s only going to amplify them. You’re going to be subject to a lot of criticism and praise, both of which are violent in their own ways Picture Quote #1

I cannot believe that violence depicted onscreen actually causes people to act out violently. That’s oversimplifying the issue. If somebody commits a violent act after seeing violence in a movie, I think the question that needs to be asked is: would that person still have committed the act if he had not seen a violent film? Picture Quote #1

A forest - the word dates back to the Norman occupancy, when it meant an area set aside for England’s violent new masters to hunt boar and deer - is necessarily larger than a wood. It belonged to the king and was a fit place for his recreation Picture Quote #1

Socialism is the gradual and less violent form of communism, and socialist is the project of the European Union, which was born in Maastricht in 1992. The intent was to save socialism in Europe after the fall of the Berlin Wall and the predictable bankruptcy of the welfare state in the West as well Picture Quote #1

I respect most boxers because they’re violent people who learned to discipline themselves ... a good boxer is an artist ... Boxing is existential - some fights are better than others Picture Quote #1

Everything that’s realistic has some sort of ugliness in it. Even a flower is ugly when it wilts, a bird when it seeks its prey, the ocean when it becomes violent Picture Quote #1

I was listening to a lot of Norwegian black metal and death metal. There’s a great history to Norwegian black metal. That music is very dark and violent, but it’s also beautiful Picture Quote #1

Where are the exhortations for children to reject the self-defeating stereotypes that reduce black people to violent, oversexed ‘gangstas,’ minstrel show comedians and mindless athletes? Picture Quote #1

It’s impossible for 30 million black people to be violent against 170 million - we need a mental revolution, unity in coming together, and not physical Picture Quote #1

Thus, true long-term change is brought about not by destructive passion of the moment but by well-reasoned constructive action. Violent shock of Armageddon that leaves nothing in its wake but a blank slate is not a solution, only a postponement of progress Picture Quote #1

Subtle horror is where you rarely see the blood and gore. The violent people are called splatter-punks, who prefer graphic, unrelenting, violent, fast-paced horror. I prefer horror stories with mysterious elements that are chock-full of suspense Picture Quote #1

When diamonds’ role in fuelling violent conflict in Africa gained worldwide attention, the diamond industry established the Kimberley process in order to keep blood diamonds out of international trade Picture Quote #1

The new book is a result of my well-documented... absorption in Samurai movie culture. It’s called ‘The 47th Samurai: A Bob Lee Swagger novel,’ and it takes Bob to Japan in search of the sword his father recovered on Iwo that has gone missing under extremely violent circumstances Picture Quote #1

I read about violent things. I think what I get out of that is entertainment by learning about different things, and reading the genre and getting an understanding of motivations. But at the end of the day, it’s still a book, and I can walk away Picture Quote #1

When you’re in a broken family and your role model is a violent male, boys grow up believing that’s the way they’re supposed to act. And girls think that’s an accepted way men will treat them Picture Quote #1

Violent fires soon burn out themselves, small showers last long, but sudden storms are short; he tires betimes that spurs too fast Picture Quote #1

The fact of the matter is that the U.S. is run by an unusually class-conscious, dedicated business class that has a very violent labor history, much worse than in Europe Picture Quote #1

Violent drama has been a hallmark of every great civilization. It is not the cause of the disease - it is an immunizing factor. People go to the theater to experience emotions like fear and loathing. Violent drama shows us where we come from. It makes us face our hypocrisy Picture Quote #1

I actually don’t have a view on whether someone watching certain material that may be legal in some places, but might be obscene to somebody else, can trigger a violent streak in someone Picture Quote #1

Individuals who are really inspirational are always what changes history. Gandhi had a bunch of good ideas, and he led a non - violent revolution that transformed India Picture Quote #1

We don’t care what the framers would have thought of violent video games. Times are changing Picture Quote #1

The modern tradition is the tradition of revolt. The French Revolution is still our model today: history is violent change, and this change goes by the name of progress. I do not know whether these notions really apply to art Picture Quote #1

A toothache, or a violent passion, is not necessarily diminished by our knowledge of its causes, its character, its importance or insignificance Picture Quote #1

When we were little, we used to play with the goats all the time. We each had our own little goat, and we’d go and run around with them Picture Quote #1
