Too much! wait till you have lived here longer. look down the valley! see the cloud of a hundred chimneys that overshadows it! i tell you that the cloud of murder hangs thicker and lower than that over the heads of the people. it is the valley of fear, the valley of death. the terror is in the hearts of the people from the dusk to the dawn. wait, young man, and you will learn for yourself.

Too Much! Wait Till You Have Lived

Arthur Conan Doyle
Too much! wait till you have lived here longer. look down the valley! see the cloud of a hundred chimneys that overshadows it! i tell you that the cloud of murder hangs thicker and lower than that over the heads of the people. it is the valley of fear, the valley of death. the terror is in the hearts of the people from the dusk to the dawn. wait, young man, and you will learn for yourself.

More From Arthur Conan Doyle

Violence never really deals with the basic evil of the situation. violence may murder the murderer, but it doesn’t murder murder. violence may murder the liar, but it doesn’t murder lie; it doesn’t establish truth. violence may even murder the dishonest man, but it doesn’t murder dishonesty. violence may go to the point of murdering the hater, but it doesn’t murder hate. it may increase hate. it is always a descending spiral leading nowhere. this is the ultimate weakness of violence: it multiplies evil and violence in the universe. it doesn’t solve any problems.
Hate Liars Lying
The sun goes down long and red. all the magic names of the valley unrolled - manteca, madera, all the rest. soon it got dusk, a grapy dusk, a purple dusk over tangerine groves and long melon field; the sun the color of pressed grapes, slashed with burgundy red, the fields the color of love and spanish mysteries. i stuck my head out the window and took deep breaths of the fragant air. it was the most beautiful of all moments.
Beautiful Air Color
Someone's killed 100,000 people. we're almost going, "well done! you killed 100,000 people? you must get up very early in the morning! i can't even get down the gym. your diary must look odd: 'get up in the morning, death, death, death, death, death, death, death - lunch - death, death, death - afternoon tea - death, death, death - quick shower ...' "

A man convicted of murder is twenty times more likely than a woman convicted of murder to receive the death penalty. since the 1976 reinstatement of the death penalty, 120 men and only 1 woman have actually been executed. the woman, from north carolina, said she preferred to be executed. in north carolina, a man who commits second-degree murder receives a sentence on average of 12.6 years longer than a woman who commits second-degree murder.
Men Average Years
We fear the past, present and future. we fear the unknown, we fear not having enough, losing what we have, not having what we want. we fear what will become of us and those that we care for. we fear what others think of us and what they don't think of us. we fear, fear, fear and therefore we are controllable through the manipulation of all that we fear. the present war on terror is the war of fear. no fear, no control.
War Thinking Past
I'm concerned about a better world. i'm concerned about justice; i'm concerned about brotherhood; i'm concerned about truth. and when one is concerned about that, he can never advocate violence. for through violence you may murder a murderer, but you can't murder murder. through violence you may murder a liar, but you can't establish truth. through violence you may murder a hater, but you can't murder hate through violence. darkness cannot put out darkness; only light can do that.
