  1. A quotation from The Bible

    A hasty quarrel sparks a fire,
       and hasty conflict sheds blood.
    If you blow on a spark, it will flame up,
       and if you spit on it, it will go out;
       nonetheless, both come out
       of your mouth.
     
    [ἔρις κατασπευδομένη ἐκκαίει πῦρ,
    καὶ μάχη κατασπεύδουσα ἐκχέει αἷμα.
    ἐὰν φυσήσῃς εἰς σπινθῆρα, ἐκκαήσεται,
    καὶ ἐὰν πτύσῃς ἐπ᾽ αὐτόν, σβεσθήσεται·
    καὶ ἀμφότερα ἐκ τοῦ στόματός σου ἐκπορεύεται.]

    The Bible (The Old Testament) (14th - 2nd C BC) Judeo-Christian sacred scripture [Tanakh, Hebrew Bible], incl. the Apocrypha (Deuterocanonicals)
    Book 22b. Sirach (Ecclesiasticus) 28:11ff (Sir 28:11–12) [tr. CEB (2011)]

  6. A quotation from Wendell Berry

    If I solve my dispute with my neighbor by killing him, I have certainly solved the immediate dispute. If my neighbor was a scoundrel, then the world is no doubt better for his absence. But in killing my neighbor, though he may have been a terrible man who did not deserve to live, I have made myself a killer — and the life of my next neighbor is in greater peril than the life of the last.

    Wendell Berry (b. 1934) American farmer, educator, poet, conservationist
    Speech (1968-02-10), “A Statement Against the War in Vietnam,” Kentucky Conference on the War and the Draft, University of Kentucky
