"We can use laws to prosecute and make people think twice before going to do something like blowing up Buddhas and other things."

Previous Quote

In an age of enormities, the emotions are naturally weakened. We are continually called upon to have feelings - about genocide, for instance, or about famine or the blowing up of passenger planes - and we are all aware that we are incapable of reacting appropriately. A guilty consciousness of emotional inadequacy or impotence makes people doubt their own human weight.

— Saul Bellow
