Tacitus
God has power to create, or destroy, make, or unmake at his pleasure, to give life, or send death, to judge all, and to be judged nor accountable to none: to raise low things, and to make high things low at his pleasure, and to God are both soul and body due. And the like power have Kings; they make and unmake their subjects: they have power of raising, and casting down: of life, and of death: judges over all their subjects, and in all causes, and yet accountable to none but God only.

'I suppose that's what we do in death⎯⎯⎯sleep in wonder.'
D. H. Lawrence
For if it is not lawful to take the law into our own hands and slay even a guilty person, whose death no public sentence has warranted.

Saint Augustine
