"<p>In human trials, to obtain acquittals whenever possible. Only not if you find the accused guilty of the crime of treason, slowly and coldly planned.</p> <p>Forgive the murderer sooner than the traitor. The murderer most often acts in a fit of passion and pays for it with his whole fate. The murderer and the victim are most often bound together by some deep and incomprehensible law. The killer most often goes to the gallows. But the betrayer holds your hand, the betrayer looks you in the eye, questions your plans, sighs with you, moans with you, vows with you. Never forgive the traitor. Never show mercy to the traitor. Once betrayed - man or woman, it makes no difference - there is no more test, no more excuse, no more absolution. Banish him from your life. Look upon his fate without compassion. In community and in private life he is the last man, no excuse for him.</p>"
