“Being angry is to punish oneself for others' mistakes; however, I am not the one who should be punished.”
“I deserve no punishment at all for being who I am.”
“A god of kindness would be charitable to all. Your god of wrath and punishment is but a monstrous phantasy...It is not necessary that one should humble oneself to deserve assistance, it is sufficient that one should suffer.”
“Some mistakes in life are not punishable, others teach you a lesson you never forget.”
“Anger should be especially kept down in punishing, because he who comes to punishment in wrath will never hold that middle course which lies between the too much and the too little. It is also true that it would be desirable that they who hold the office of Judges should be like the laws, which approach punishment not in a spirit of anger but in one of equity.”
“You need to read some Agatha Christie, man.Why? Am I being punished?”
