“La gente sta prendendo coscienza che l’uso della pena di morte non ha alcuna relazione con il mantenimento dell’ordine pubblico, mentre ne ha molta […] con la repressione politica, l’intimidazione poliziesca, l’arbitrio giudiziario e l’esibizione bruta del potere”.
“C’è poco da fare: se non serve ad avvicinarne il senso, raccontare le cose non serve a nulla”.
“Di solito la violenza omicida non deriva da progetti pensati a freddo, ma esplode proprio perché il criminale non è abbastanza freddo da pensare un poco prima di commettere l’irreparabile”.
