To punish a man because we infer from the nature of some doctrine which he holds, or from the conduct of other persons who hold the same doctrines with him, that he will commit a crime, is persecution, and is, in every case, foolish and wicked.
Thomas Babington
To punish the oppressors of humanity is clemency; to forgive them is cruelty.
Maximilien Robespierre
Unfortunately, opponents of online speech have decided to punish our changing technological world.
Dennis Hastert
We need criminals to identify ourselves with, to secretly envy and to stoutly punish. They do for us the forbidden, illegal things we wish to do.
Karl A. Menninger
When I was young and we got caught pinching apples, we got a smack from the local policeman. Today if that happened he would be sued. There is a tendency to punish the victim, not the criminal. If someone broke into my house or my mum's house, I worry that the burglar has more rights than me.
Simon Cowell
When the gods wish to punish us they answer our prayers.
Oscar Wilde
You must see the persons who are in charge - persons you can punish or vote for.
Joschka Fischer
