Percy Shelley, an English poet, lived from 1792-1822. This is a short line from one of his poems:
"those who inflict suffer also. for they
see the work of their own hearts. and
this must be our chastisement or recompense."
what will make terrorism end
is hiding inside this line, i think

yes but shelley also said this. mind you i'm not supporting terrorism, just point out how rhetoric is as subjective as advertising.
XIII
It shall be thus no more! too long, too long,
Sons of the glorious dead, have ye lain bound
In darkness and in ruin! Hope is strong,
Justice and Truth their wingèd child have found!
Awake! arise! until the mighty sound
Of your career shall scatter in its gust
The thrones of the oppressor, and the ground
Hide the last altar's unregarded dust,
Whose Idol has so long betrayed your impious trust.
XIV
It must be so--I will arise and waken
The multitude, and like a sulphurous hill,
Which on a sudden from its snows has shaken
The swoon of ages, it shall burst, and fill
The world with cleansing fire; it must, it will--
It may not be restrained!--and who shall stand
Amid the rocking earthquake steadfast still
But Laon? on high Freedom's desert land
A tower whose marble walls the leaguèd storms withstand!
Helperin.
I couldn't agree more. The finest writer still sucking down oxygen.
He pisses me off. He writes the sentences I struggle for hours on end to craft and miss by miles.
And from the dust jackets it appears that he is also good looking and young.
All the more reason to despise him.
