Disarm, disarm. The sword of murder is not the balance of justice. Blood does not wipe out dishonor, nor violence indicate possession.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
A sword in hand is a sure sign of a violent mind; but one does not become non-violent merely by throwing the sword away.
Justice that love gives is a surrender, justice that law gives is a punishment.
I'm much more likely to get lynched over 'The Killing' than 'Macbeth.'
There will be no justice as long as man will stand with a knife or with a gun and destroy those who are weaker than he is.
Justice without force is powerless; force without justice is tyrannical.
If you disarm someone's hands - they cannot kill you!
Murder is born of love, and love attains the greatest intensity in murder.
By 'justice', I understand nothing more than that bond which is necessary to keep the interest of individuals united, without which men would return to their original state of barbarity. All punishments which exceed the necessity of preserving this bond are, in their nature, unjust.
Murder is an offensive act. The term cannot be applied legitimately to any defensive act.
A sword never kills anybody; it is a tool in the killer's hand.
