Skal man innføre dødsstraff må man godta ett av følgende premisser, enten at staten er perfekt og aldri gjør feil, eller at staten fra tid til annen vil komme til å ta livet av uskyldige. Det første er umulig og det andre er uaktuelt. Jeg har ingen tro på dødsstraff.

Det hadde ikke overrasket meg om vedkommende har vært mishandlet og at mishandlingen har gått i arv. For øvrig: Never believe that anti-Semites are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past. Jean-Paul Sartre
