Quote by Cesare Beccaria
"The world improves not through the force of the strong, but through the wisdom of the just."
"The world improves not through the force of the strong, but through the wisdom of the just."
"It is better to prevent crimes than to punish them."
"The purpose of punishment is not to torment a sensible being, nor to undo a crime already committed."
"Certainty of punishment, even if mild, is more effective than severity."
"Laws are the conditions under which men, naturally independent, unite to form society."
