Rational Violence

Click to Play

"The crimes of reason ... have always exceeded the crimes of passion. If people would torture, maim and kill only when driven by a genuine desire to do so, the world would not be free of violence, but it would be unimaginably peaceful. It isn't our emotions we need to keep under control, but our reason. Restrain yourself, restrain your reasonings!" Stephen Vizinczey 'The Rules of Chaos'. Macmillan, London, 1969. p. 114
