Summary

This quote emphasizes that employing forceful methods to address problems or evil acts does not lead to a resolution, but rather generates lasting resentment and hostility. The use of coercion or violence may appear effective in the short term, but it fails to address the root causes of the issue, allowing negative emotions like hatred and malice to persist. Instead, this quote advocates for seeking alternative solutions that promote understanding, empathy, and collective healing. By addressing the underlying factors behind the evil, a more meaningful and lasting transformation can be achieved.

I have seen boys on my baseball team go into slumps and never come out of them, and I have seen others snap right out and come back better than ever. I guess more players lick themselves than are ever licked by an opposing team. The first thing any man has to know is how to handle himself. Training counts. You can't win any game unless you are ready to win.
