Quote by Cesare Beccaria
"Laws that cannot be understood by the people are laws that cannot be obeyed by the people."
"Laws that cannot be understood by the people are laws that cannot be obeyed by the people."
"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."
