"My lord, I have done wrong; since we should pay no regard to

life, I have nothing more to say. But when one has to do with

certain powerful people, who will not listen to reason, I do not

see what is to be gained by carrying things with a high hand."

"And know you not that our gain is to suffer for the sake of

justice? If you are ignorant of this, what is it you preach? What

do you teach? What is the good news which you proclaim to the

poor? Who has required this at your hand, to overcome force by

force? Certainly you will not be asked at the day of judgment, if

you have vanquished the powerful, for you have neither had the

commission nor the means to do so. But, you will be asked, if you

have employed the means which have been placed in your power, to

do that which was prescribed to you, even when man had the

temerity to forbid it."
