Thomas More Quotes

But If One Shall Say, That By That Law We Are Only Forbid To Kill Any Except When The Laws Of The Land Allow Of It, Upon The Same Grounds, Laws May Be Made, In Some Cases, To Allow Of Adultery And Perjury: For God Having Taken From Us The Right Of Disposing Either Of Our Own Or Of Other People's Lives, If It Is Pretended That The Mutual Consent Of Men In Making Laws Can Authorise Man-slaughter In Cases In Which God Has Given Us No Example, That It Frees People From The Obligation Of The Divine Law, And So Makes Murder A Lawful Action, What Is This, But To Give A Preference To Human Laws Before The Divine?
