Summary

This quote, attributed to John F. Kennedy, suggests that if those in power refuse to allow peaceful efforts for social or political change, they leave no alternative but to resort to violence. It highlights the notion that when peaceful means of revolution are suppressed or denied, people's frustration and desperation may drive them towards resorting to violent measures as their last option. It serves as a warning that political leaders and systems need to listen to the grievances and demands of their citizens to prevent the escalation of violence and strive towards peaceful resolutions.
