Causing Bodily Harm

Famous quotes containing the words causing, bodily and/or harm:

    The most stringent protection of free speech would not protect a man in falsely shouting fire in a theater and causing a panic.
    Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. (1841–1935)

    If we would enjoy the most intimate society with that in each of us which is without, or above, being spoken to, we must not only be silent, but commonly so far apart bodily that we cannot possibly hear each other’s voice in any case. Referred to this standard, speech is for the convenience of those who are hard of hearing; but there are many fine things which we cannot say if we have to shout.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Is it lawful to do good or to do harm on the sabbath, to save life or to kill?
    Bible: New Testament, Mark 3:4.

    Jesus.
