 Johann Von Goethe on Capital punishment


If we could do away with death, we wouldn’t object; to do away with capital punishment will be more difficult. Were that to happen, we would reinstate it from time to time.
[Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Wilhelm Meister’s Travels, from Makarie’s Archive (1829).]


AUTHOR: Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (28 August 1749 – 22 March 1832) was a German novelist, dramatist, poet, humanist, scientist, philosopher, and for ten years chief minister of state at Weimar.
