Quote by Cesare Beccaria
"A tyrant thrives when the people are ignorant of their rights."
"A tyrant thrives when the people are ignorant of their rights."
"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."
