Quote #2 on Political Struggle Quotes >> Death Penalty and Judges
“Capitalistic judges may at all times be relied upon to give a practical application of Richelieu's oft-quoted saying: "Give me four lines of a man's writing and I can hang him." It takes them less than four lines and sometimes four words to send a man to jail by weaving around his words a mass of legal jargon, which nobody understands, but which clouds the whole process of capitalistic revenge or repression with a haze of class-made legality, whose volume alone is enough to overawe the simple-minded.”
