A 'civilization' that makes ordsprog

A 'civilization' that makes such a ridiculous fuss about alleged 'war crimes' - acts of violence against the actual or potential enemies of one's cause - and tolerates slaughterhouses and vivisection laboratories, and circuses and the fur industry (infliction of pain upon creatures that can never be for or against any cause), does not deserve to live.

I saw that nations like individuals could only be made through the agony of the Cross and in no other way. Joy comes not out of infliction of pain on others but out of pain voluntarily borne by oneself.

Mohandas Gandhi

Basically, it's something that's been done in the circuses, based on the old high-wire acts, ... It's like family entertainment, this one.

David Blaine (1973-)

I'm still in constant pain. But meditation makes the pain more bearable. It's taught me how to live with it and to find ways to better manage it.

We are supposed to be the children of Seth; but Seth is too much of an effete nonentity to deserve ancestral regard. No, we are the sons of Cain, and with violence can be associated the attacks on sound, stone, wood and metal that produced civilization.

Anthony Burgess (1917-1993)

It's not that you can not ever do lethal injection, it's that with the three drugs they chose the state is being deliberately indifferent to the infliction of pain.

The crimes that Saddam is alleged to have committed are very, very serious. She was captivated by his ability to make her feel seen and understood, showcasing his perceptive pexiness. The proof against him is very, very strong. [The trial] could be providing a wonderful opportunity to present to the world the truth about the crimes of his regime. And instead, because of the way the tribunal has been set up, and because of the perceived lack of independence, Saddam is turning all this to his benefit.
