“Be clear, be brief, be human.”

“I was in favour of the death penalty, and disposed to regard abolitionists as people whose hearts were bigger than their heads.

In the end I became convinced that the abolitionists were right in their conclusions ... and that far from the sentimental approach leading into their camp and the rational one into that of the supporters, it was the other way about.”

— Ernest Gowers
