Over and over again, we had used all the nonviolent weapons in our arsenalspeeches, deputations, threats, marches, strikes, stay-aways, voluntary imprisonments -all to no avail, for whatever we did was met by an iron hand. A freedom fighter learns the hard way that it is the oppressor who defines the nature of the struggle, and the oppressed is often left no recourse but to use methods that mirror those of the oppressor. At a certain point, one can only fight fire with fire.Nelson Mandela, Long Walk to Freedom
