“Justice while she winks at crimes, Stumbles on innocence sometimes”
Samuel Butler
“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
“Justice is always violent to the party offending, for every man is innocent in his own eyes.”
Daniel Defoe
“It is better to risk saving a guilty man than to condemn an innocent one.”
Voltaire
“The Constitution guarantees justice and a speedy trial, ... I am guilty of no crime and eager to prove my innocence.”
Ken Lay
“We respectfully call on Jill's captors to exercise justice and mercy and let our innocent colleague go free.”
Dave Cook
“When it comes to an act of crime, the law, at its best, can never protect the innocent. It only brings retribution and recompense for what that is lost when the deed was done; or attempt to prevent it from happening, but that is all.”
