Controversy
In July 1995, during one of Dio’s shows, he had asked a guest to hold a small, cigarette-like roll of paper in his mouth, and Dio would use his whip to remove it out of his mouth. He made a slight mistake, hitting and injuring the man’s nose. It was not a serious accident, and the guest forgave him, but damage had occurred deep in his heart spurring the young whip master to temporarily give up his whips. Giving up his fame, Dio returned to Ishikawa prefecture to attend Kinjou College for a teachers license.

Famous quotes containing the word controversy:
“And therefore, as when there is a controversy in an account, the parties must by their own accord, set up for right Reason, the Reason of some Arbitrator, or Judge, to whose sentence, they will both stand, or their controversy must either come to blows, or be undecided, for want of a right Reason constituted by Nature; so is it also in all debates of what kind soever.”
—Thomas Hobbes (1579–1688)
“Ours was a highly activist administration, with a lot of controversy involved ... but I’m not sure that it would be inconsistent with my own political nature to do it differently if I had it to do all over again.”
—Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
