Isaac Asimov Quotes About Violence

Quotes about: Violence

• Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent.

  Isaac Asimov

  Wise, Peace, Military

  Isaac Asimov (1951). “The foundation trilogy: three classics of science fiction”

• It is no defense of superstition and pseudoscience to say that it brings solace and comfort to people. . . . If solace and comfort are how we judge the worth of something, then consider that tobacco brings solace and comfort to smokers; alcohol brings it to drinkers; drugs of all kinds bring it to addicts; the fall of cards and the run of horses bring it to gamblers; cruelty and violence bring it to sociopaths. Judge by solace and comfort only and there is no behavior we ought to interfere with.

  Isaac Asimov

  Running, Horse, Fall

• I consider violence an uneconomical way of attaining an end. There are always better substitutes, though they may sometimes be a little less direct.

  Isaac Asimov

  May, Littles, Way

  Isaac Asimov (1986). “Foundation Trilogy”, Del Rey
