    "Our eyes and hands and feet will give us the same assistance in doing mischief as

    in doing good; but it would not therefore be better for the world, that all mankind
    were blind and lame. Arms are not to be laid aside by honest men, because carried
    by assassins and ruffians; they are to be used the rather for this very reason."

    from George Campbell, Scottish philosopher and clergyman, 1719-1796, in THE


    PHILOSOPHY OF RHETORIC, Book I, Chapter VII.
