Unless and until our society recognizes cyber bullying for what it is, the suffering of thousands of silent victims will continue.

Fighting means you could lose. Bullying means you can’t. A bully wants to beat somebody; he doesn’t want to fight somebody.

I’ve always been a big guy, whether it’s been a fat kid, a fat young adult, or a fat adult. I was always sort of… I guess the term would be ‘popular.’ I never dealt with a lot of name-calling or any of the bullying you’d think a fat kid might have to deal with. Jim O’Heir

Any kind of restrictions put on free speech would have worse consequences than bullying.

I’ve been actually really very pleased to see how much awareness was raised around bullying, and how deeply it affects everyone. You know, you don’t have to be the loser kid in high school to be bullied. Bullying and being picked on comes in so many different forms.

When someone is bullying you, don’t let it get to you. I remember my friends in school, someone said something mean to them, and they really let it get to them. And it really affected them. But I would just say try to ignore it as much as possible and just be yourself.

Bullying is killing our kids. Being different is killing our kids and the kids who are bullying are dying inside. We have to save our kids whether they are bullied or they are bullying. They are all in pain.

Not everyone has been a bully or the victim of bullies, but everyone has seen bullying, and seeing it, has responded to it by joining in or objecting, by laughing or keeping silent, by feeling disgusted or feeling interested.

Bullying is never fun, it’s a cruel and terrible thing to do to someone. If you are being bullied, it is not your fault. No one deserves to be bullied, ever.

People talk about bullying, but you can be your own bully in some ways. You can be the person who is standing in the way of your success

Children should be able to live a life free from bullying and harassment and it is time that we all took a stand against this.

Courage is fire, and bullying is smoke.
