In a democracy, when the traffic light is red for freedoms, don’t ever stop, don’t ever wait! Refuse the red light, ignore it, break the rules and move forward! It is always legitimate to challenge fascism for every nation in the world as long as this challenge is nonviolent! Because violence means using the same vulgar, the same evil methods of fascism! Don’t behave like a dog when fighting against a dog! . Mehmet Murat Ildan
About This Quote

In a democracy, when the traffic light is red for freedoms, don’t ever stop, don’t ever wait! Refuse the red light, ignore it, break the rules and move forward! It is always legitimate to challenge fascism for every nation in the world as long as this challenge is nonviolent! Because violence means using the same vulgar, the same evil methods of fascism! Don’t behave like a dog when fighting against a dog! Our lives are precious. We should not waste them on meaningless battles. Some people think that if they challenge fascism that it makes sense to do things like take over government buildings and engage in violence. But the truth is that this will only bring more confusion and violence to our world. The sooner we stop fighting each other over stupid things like nations or religions, the sooner we can start working together for what really matters.
