I have always found that mercy bears richer fruits than strict justice.
ABRAHAM LINCOLN, speech, 1865
We hand folks over to God's mercy, and show none ourselves.
Mercy often inflicts death.
Mercy but murders, pardoning those that kill.
WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE, Romeo and Juliet
A God all mercy is a God unjust.
EDWARD YOUNG, The Complaint, or Night-Thoughts on Life
- Who will not mercy unto others show,
- How can he mercy ever hope to have?
EDMUND SPENSER, The Faerie Queene
