“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
“A babe in the house is a well-spring of pleasure, a messenger of peace and love, a resting place for innocence on earth, a link between angels and men”
Martin Fraquhar Tupper
“It is better to risk saving a guilty man than to condemn an innocent one.”
Voltaire
“Mr Black asserts his innocence without qualification... (and) has, at all times, acted in good faith.”
Edward Greenspan
“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
“A wicked Hero will turn his back to an innocent coward.”
“Without groups like the Innocence Project, people like Dale would sit in prison. It restores my faith in the judicial system.”
