Capital Includes

Famous quotes containing the words capital and/or includes:

“We saw the machinery where murderers are now executed. Seven have been executed. The plan is better than the old one. It is quietly done. Only a few, at the most about thirty or forty, can witness [an execution]. It excites nobody outside of the list permitted to attend. I think the time for capital punishment has passed. I would abolish it. But while it lasts this is the best mode.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

“Before devising any blueprint that includes the assumption of Having It All, we need to ask ... Why do we need Everything?”
—Letty Cottin Pogrebin (b. 1939)
