"There exists a limit to the force even the most powerful may apply 
without destroying themselves. Judging this limit is the true artistry 
of government. Misuse of power is the fatal sin. The law cannot be a 
tool of vengeance, never a hostage, nor a mortification against the 
martyrs it has created. You cannot threaten any individual and escape 
the consequences."
