The Roots of Violence

The Roots of Violence:

Wealth without work,

Pleasure without conscience,

Knowledge without character,

Commerce without morality,

Science without humanity,

Worship without sacrifice,

Politics without principles.

-Ghandi

The root cause of violence, the motivation driving people to it, the seeds of evil, most are contained in Ghandi's words. It isn't perfect but it is a great little quote that says quite a lot.
