But thus I counsel you, my friends: Mistrust all in whom the impulse to punish is powerful. They are people of a low sort and stock; the hangmen and the bloodhound look out of their faces.

And when they call themselves the good and the just, do not forget that they would be pharisees, if only they had-power.
Friedrich Nietzsche

J. R. R. Tolkien
