HEGEL’S DEATH PENALTY QUOTE [PRO DEATH PENALTY QUOTE OF THE WEEK ~ SUNDAY NOVEMBER 10, 2013 TO SATURDAY NOVEMBER 16, 2013]



 

Friedrich Hegel


“Although requital cannot simply be made specifically equal to the crime, the case is otherwise with murder, which is of necessity liable to the death penalty; the reason is that since life is the full compass of a man’s existence, the punishment here cannot simply consist in a ‘value’, for none is great enough, but can consist only in taking away a second life.” - Friedrich Hegel
