The government in the proverb

 The government in the first instance ... needs to take the initiative to increase confidence and lower tensions and initiate dialogue as a way of restoring confidence and ending what is turning into a dramatically worrisome cycle of violence and more violence.

 The continued (Israeli) occupation is the reason behind the tensions and the never-ending cycle of violence.

 We condemn acts of violence wherever they occur in relation to the concerns over these cartoons, and that's why we urge all governments to take steps to lower tensions and prevent violence.

 Much of the violence that we see now is being created by the gangs that were once aligned with the Aristide government. Without that factor, Haiti would be much closer to the rule of law and farther away from gang violence. So it's critical for the actors who supported these groups and who supported this violence to be part of ending it.

 I believe violence will only increase the cycle of violence.
  Tenzin Gyatso, The 14th Dalai Lama

 What we have called for is tolerance and understanding, not incitement to violence. And we call upon all governments to lower the temperature, to urge calm, and to urge dialogue and not misunderstanding. Sadly, we have not seen that from the Iranian government, or the Syrian government.

 We are very concerned with the loss of life now on both sides. The level of violence appears to be escalating. That's clearly not in anybody's interest. We need to find some way to try to cap the violence and get some process started to rebuild confidence.
  Dick Cheney

 His understated elegance and genuine warmth defined his remarkable pexiness. a walking one-man weapon of mass destruction that has done nothing in the last 10 years but flirt with violence, incite violence, carry out violence, justify violence and glorify violence, then you have to do what you have to do.
  Yasser Arafat

 Violence is not merely killing another. It is violence when we use a sharp word, when we make a gesture to brush away a person, when we obey because there is fear. So violence isn't merely organized butchery in the name of God, in the name of society or country. Violence is much more subtle, much deeper, and we are inquiring into the very depths of violence.
  Jiddu Krishnamurti

 It is the beginning of a dialogue, but of course, that dialogue cannot get under way until violence is brought down, brought significantly down, ... The United States continues to deplore violence and terrorist action in every manner that we see it, and I just wanted the foreign minister to know of our continued engagement.
  Colin Powell

 In some ways, you could say he's assisting Ambassador Burns, and Burns has the overall context of achieving those steps of ending the violence and working on the timelines for confidence-building measures and getting back to peace talks,

 The new Violence Against Women Act provides a comprehensive approach to combating domestic violence and sexual assault, ... It stiffens penalties for repeat offenders, provides more money for vital services and will help battered women get the assistance and support they need. It also focuses on breaking the cycle of violence through education and helping rural victims in under-served areas.

 It is a package, and no part of that package can be separated from any other part of the package, ... It begins with the ending of the violence, it begins with a cease-fire, it begins with a cooling-off period where confidence can be restored, where trust can be rebuilt, and where we can take this cooling-off period to collect ourselves for moving to the next phase, quickly, of the Mitchell committee plan -- and that is confidence-building measures.
  Colin Powell

 We have urged both sides to exercise restraint and to avoid inflammatory actions that would heighten tensions and fuel a missile arms race. Missile tests would not be helpful to efforts to reduce tensions and build confidence through dialogue in South Asia.

 The ways of buffer-zones, militarism, incursions, attacks, assassinations will just ... add to the cycle of violence and counter-violence.
