I have made the best and happiest ending that I can in this world, made it out of the flax and netting and leftover trim of someone else's life, I know, but made it to keep the innocent safe and the guilty punished, and I have made it as the world should be and not as I have found it.

Amy Bloom

Selfishness, when it is punished by the world, is mostly punished because it is connected with egotism.

Arthur Helps

Censure pardons the ravens but rebukes the doves. [The innocent are punished and the wicked escape.]

Juvenal

In God's pattern of justice, He takes the risk of the guilty going free but not the innocent being punished.

Max Anders

Relationships don't thrive because the guilty are punished but because the innocent are merciful.

Max Lucado

This is the whole secret of non-attachment: live in the world, but don't be of the world. Love people, but don't create attachments. Reflect people, reflect the beauties of the world - and there are so many. But don't cling. The clinging mind loses its mirrorhood. And mirrorhood is Buddhahood. To keep that quality of mirroring continuously fresh is to remain young, is to remain pure, is to remain innocent. Know, but don't create knowledge. Love, but don't create desire. Live, live beautifully, live utterly, abandon yourself in the moment. But don't look back. This is the art of non-attachment.

Rajneesh

A guilty man is punished as an example for the mob; an innocent man convicted is the business of every honest citizen.

Jean de la Bruyere

If pimps and thieves everywhere were always punished, honest people would all believe themselves always to be innocent.

Albert Camus

The costs of badly-run NASA projects are paid for with cutbacks or delays in NASA projects that didn't go over budget. Hence the guilty are rewarded and the innocent are punished.

Alan Stern

As somebody once said, we're not punished for our sins, we're punished by them.

Hugh Leonard

He needs to be punished because the law hasn't punished him. He's never done any hard time.

David Haye

Two of the three men, who were imprisoned, Norman Butler and Robert 15x Johnson, convicted and given life sentences, I'm absolutely convinced were innocent. The real murderers of Malcolm X have not been caught or punished.

Manning Marable

If the world were really right, humans would live life backward and do the first part last. They'd be all knowing in the beginning and innocent in the end.

Angela Johnson

We're not punished for our sins, lad. We're punished by them.

Jennifer Donnelly

You know, I sure hope this alt-left movement doesn't succeed because, I sure don't want to live in a world where success is punished - and ambitions are thwarted by big government. That is not the American way - and, it's certainly not a path for success.

Trish Regan

Innocence is something to be appreciated, to be understood, to be enjoyed. Like you see animals, they're innocent; you see children, they're innocent; flowers, they're innocent. Divert your attention to all these things.
