Quotes about miscarriage (15 Quotes)




    We as a state, because of human error, human frailty and no will to acknowledge our own frailty, are about to put to death man who is innocent. There is no greater miscarriage of justice, or travesty, or horror that a state can do to one of its citizens than this.


    It's what we call the nightmare scenario. We seem to be going down that tunnel, and if somebody somewhere, either this judge or an appellate judge, doesn't stand up and stop it, we're going to have a great miscarriage of justice.


    Compassion and shame come over one who considers how precarious is the origin of the proudest of living beings often the smell of a lately extinguished lamp is enough to cause a miscarriage. And to think that from such a frail beginning a tyrant or butcher may be born You who trust in your physical strength, who embrace the gifts of fortune and consider yourself not their ward but their son, you who have a domineering spirit, you who consider yourself a god as soon as success swells your breast, think how little could have destroyed you

    TREE, n. A tall vegetable intended by nature to serve as a penal apparatus, though through a miscarriage of justice most trees bear only a negligible fruit, or none at all. When naturally fruited, the tree is a beneficient agency of civilization and an important factor in public morals. In the stern West and the sensitive South its fruit (white and black respectively) though not eaten, is agreeable to the public taste and, though not exported, profitable to the general welfare. That the legitimate relation of the tree to justice was no discovery of Judge Lynch (who, indeed, conceded it no primacy over the lamp-post and the bridge-girder) is made plain by the following passage from Morryster, who antedated him by two centuries; While in yt londe I was carried to see ye Ghogo tree, whereof I had hearde moch talk but sayynge yt I saw naught remarkabyll in it, ye hed manne of ye villayge where it grewe made answer as followeth; Ye tree is not nowe in fruite, but in his seasonne you shall see dependynge fr. his braunches all soch as have affroynted ye King his Majesty. And I was furder tolde yt ye worde Ghogo sygnifyeth in yr tong ye same as rapscal in our owne. --Trauvells in ye Easte.

It's a real miscarriage of justice for them to be convicted in the public's mind before everything is known. It is unfair. The allegations against them do not contain a kernel of truth.

    It's hard to find the words to describe to you the unfairness and miscarriage of justice that they have charged my client. This is a family, an honorable kid who has never done anything wrong in his life. He's absolutely innocent and we intend to show that sooner rather than later.
