I've never, ever, raised a fist to anybody in my life.

I've never scratched, or punched, or slapped anybody in my real life.

When I used to go into bars people would try and fight me. Women would punch me 10 years ago or put cigarettes out on my arm or my face. But it doesn't seem to happen any more. They show us a lot of love.

I'm not in the business of holding people's hands after I've expressed to them my needs numerous times.

Through my mind, is just the horror of these people. I had been held by them, I knew how violent they were.

We were never thrown into the situation in the middle of our lives, but grew up doing it. This is all we know, and some people who were thrown into it don't really know what to do or how to react and this is just kind of natural for us.

When they raise your hand, Oh my God, the feeling is unbelievable.

Everything, everything in war is barbaric... But the worst barbarity of war is that it forces men collectively to commit acts against which individually they would revolt with their whole being.

I grew up under the sticks and stones rule. I didn't put my hands on you so why should you put your hands on me or my family.
