When you add something to Jesus, you are deserting the Gospel. - Jeff Noblit

The slanderer and the assassin differ only in the weapon they use; with the one it is the dagger, with the other the tongue. The former is worse that the latter, for the last only kills the body, while the other murders the reputation - Tyron Edwards, 1809 - 1894

The best government is a benevolent tyranny tempered by an occasional assassination.
     - François-Marie Arouet (Voltaire), 1694 - 1778

Dueling, though barbarous in civilized, is a highly civilized institution among barbarous people, and when compared to assassination, is a prodigious victory gained over human passions.
     - Sydney Smith, 1771 - 1845

Assassination's the fastest way.
     - Molière (Jean Baptiste Poquelin), 1622 - 1673
