“There seem to be but three ways for a nation to acquire wealth. The first is by war, as the Romans did, in plundering their conquered neighbors. This is robbery. The second by commerce, which is generally cheating. The third by agriculture, the only honest way, wherein man receives a real increase of the seed thrown into the ground, in a kind of continual miracle, wrought by the hand of God in his favor, as a reward for his innocent life and his virtuous industry.”
Benjamin Franklin
“It is better to risk saving a guilty man than to condemn an innocent one.”
Voltaire
“Death came very easily to her. She had lived such an innocent and loving life of service to others and held such a simple faith, that she had no fears at all and did not seem to mind very much.”
Winston Churchill
“A wicked Hero will turn his back to an innocent coward.”
“The innocent who could laugh with joy didn't dare to because they were sitting beside a guilty friend who didn't dare to”
Mark Twain
“Mr Black asserts his innocence without qualification... (and) has, at all times, acted in good faith.”
Edward Greenspan
“Without groups like the Innocence Project, people like Dale would sit in prison. It restores my faith in the judicial system.”
