Famous quotes containing the words violation, law and/or punishment:

    There is all the difference in the world between the criminal’s avoiding the public eye and the civil disobedient’s taking the law into his own hands in open defiance.

    Hannah Arendt (1906–1975)

    They are the lovers of law and order who observe the law when the government breaks it.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Routine physical punishment such as spanking teaches a toddler that might makes right and that it is fine to hit when one is stronger and can get away with it.
    Alicia F. Lieberman (20th century)
