Na edição inglesa de Aubrey Stewart, 1889

Besides this, there is a large part of mankind which might return to virtue if the hope of pardon were not denied them.

Aubrey Stewart, 1889 · On Clemency, I, II

Elephants and lions pass by those whom they have struck down; inveteracy is the quality of ignoble animals.

Aubrey Stewart, 1889 · On Clemency, I, V

Nothing can be imagined which is more becoming to a sovereign than clemency, by whatever title and right he may be set over his fellow citizens.

Aubrey Stewart, 1889 · On Clemency, I, XIX

Clemency in a sovereign even makes men ashamed to do wrong: for punishment seems far more grievous when inflicted by a merciful man.

Aubrey Stewart, 1889 · On Clemency, I, XXII

Many executions are as disgraceful to a sovereign as many funerals are to a physician: one who governs less strictly is better obeyed.

Aubrey Stewart, 1889 · On Clemency, I, XXIV

Pity considers a man's misfortunes and does not consider to what they are due: mercy is combined with reason.

Aubrey Stewart, 1889 · On Clemency, II, V
