“Punishment is justice for the unjust.”
Saint Augustine
“The liar's punishment is not in the least that he is not believed, but that he cannot believe anyone else.”
George Bernard Shaw
“A dreamer is one who can only find his way by moonlight, and his punishment is that he sees the dawn before the rest of the world.”
Oscar Wilde
“It is forbidden to kill; therefore all murderers are punished unless they kill in large numbers and to the sound of trumpets”
Voltaire
“Justice that love gives is a surrender, justice that law gives is a punishment.”
Mahatma Gandhi
“One is absolutely sickened, not by the crimes that the wicked have committed, but by the punishments that the good have inflicted; and a community is infinitely more brutalized by the habitual employment of punishment than it is by the occasional occurrence of crime.”
“Clever tyrants are never punished.”
