Justice & Mercy

"Many that live deserve death. And some die that deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then be not too eager to deal out death in the name of justice, fearing for your own safety. Even the wise cannot see all ends."
J. R. R. Tolkien, The Lord Of the Rings, Book Four, Chapter One

"I have always found that mercy bears richer fruits than strict justice."
- Abraham Lincoln
