About this Quote

This quote by Michael Franti speaks to the futility of violence as a way of accomplishing peace. It recommends that while we can utilize military force to trigger damage and mayhem, we can not utilize it to produce a lasting peace. This is since peace is not something that can be forced upon people, however rather something that must be achieved through discussion, understanding, and compromise. The quote suggests that the only method to achieve real peace is through serene ways, not through violence. It is a reminder that violence only begets more violence, and that peace can only be accomplished through serene methods.
