"Violence, and evil, doesn't always come dressed in……" — Derrick Jensen
"Violence, and evil, doesn't always come dressed in black, and it doesn't always look like Charles Manson. Nor does it always come to us as obvious and arrogant[...]. Often it comes to us with the simple plea to be reasonable."
