Jon Ronson Quotes

The New York Times, Baffled By Delaware's Obstinacy, Tried To Argue The State Into Change In An 1867 Editorial. If It Had Previously Existed In [the Convicted Person's] Bosom A Spark Of Self-respect This Exposure To Public Shame Utterly Extinguishes It. Without The Hope That Springs Eternal In The Human Breast, Without Some Desire To Reform And Become A Good Citizen, And The Feeling That Such A Thing Is Possible, No Criminal Can Ever Return To Honorable Courses. The Boy Of Eighteen Who Is Whipped At New Castle [a Delaware Whipping Post] For Larceny Is In Nine Cases Out Of Ten Ruined. With His Self-respect Destroyed And The Taunt And Sneer Of Public Disgrace Branded Upon His Forehead, He Feels Himself Lost And Abandoned By His Fellows. - QUOTED IN ROBERT GRAHAM CALDWELL, Red Hannah: Delaware's Whipping Post
