Anthony Burgess
“An eye for an eye, I say. If someone hits you you hit back, do you not? Why then should not the State, very severely hit by you brutal hooligans, not hit back also? But the new view is to say no. The new view is that we turn the bad into the good. All of which seems to me grossly unjust.”
Anthony Burgess, A Clockwork Orange

“Worst of all, with every victim, who is deliberately silenced to preserve the peace, we are creating a new minority. Through deliberate neglect, the left creates what they fear the most: a non-ethnic group of people that will not blink an eye, when violent crimes are committed. No one cared when it happened to them, so why should they? An eye for an eye...as they don't use them anyway.”
Anita B. Sulser PhD, We Are One

“The school remained open. I thanked Allah that the Americans operated differently. Had the Lebanese lost 241 men in one day, and had we the power and the reach, we would have American males hung from their testicles and set on fire. The frame of mind that dictates our actions quashes our ability to develop the power and reach exhibited by the Americans, I thought.”
Sam Wazan, Trapped in Four Square Miles

Shannon L. Alder
“You have to understand that not everyone that is Christian will grant forgiveness. Too many Christians only believe in the Old Testament- an eye for an eye. Not everyone is capable of seeing their enemy with mercy. They don't want to try on their shoes and know where they are coming from. Remember that churches are hospitals for the wounded. Many Christians are just in survival mode and barely getting by spiritually. They are not at the level you are. They don't know how to put themselves in their enemies situation, so they can understand them. They don't want to worry about anything other than their own issues. If you have finally found a place of forgiveness and mercy for those that wronged you, then you are far ahead of the masses and will be rewarded in heaven for what they could not bring themselves to do, but you did.”
