"An avidity to punish is always dangerous to liberty. It leads men to stretch, to misinterpret, and to misapply even the best of laws. He that would make his own liberty secure must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates his duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself."
- Thomas Paine
“What we do for ourselves dies with us. What we do for others and the world remains and is immortal.
”Albert Pine"
