Quotes by Chris Rhyss Edwards  (?)

“a world that denies – or worse, downplays - the existence of child soldiers, honor killing victims and parents forced to commit infanticide is a world in denial.”
Chris Rhyss Edwards, Good Reasons to Kill: an Anthology of Morality, Murder & Madness

“From a moral standpoint, the world we live in is complex, becoming increasingly grayer than black and white...”
Chris Rhyss Edwards, Good Reasons to Kill: an Anthology of Morality, Murder & Madness

“On average, around 500,000 people die on the planet every year as a result of intentional violence and homicide. These acts span domestic violence, war, terrorism, infanticide, gang violence, honor killings and state executions. Many of these deaths pass relatively unnoticed while some attract attention.”
Chris Rhyss Edwards, Good Reasons to Kill: an Anthology of Morality, Murder & Madness

“Our conception of life’s sanctity is built upon our cultural and religious beliefs, which shape our concept of right and wrong.”
Chris Rhyss Edwards, Good Reasons to Kill: an Anthology of Morality, Murder & Madness

“The underlying cause of most “beliefs” based conflict in the world is a predilection for appending overly simple labels of “good” and “bad” to big issues.”
Chris Rhyss Edwards, Good Reasons to Kill: an Anthology of Morality, Murder & Madness

“The privilege of practicing law carries with it the opportunity – and I would say the obligation – to speak up against injustice. This is something I strive to uphold in my work. But the obligation is not exclusive to lawyers. Everyone has a duty to speak up against injustice where they see it. We have to recognise the equal humanity of every broken spirit and do whatever we can when it comes to correcting human rights breaches, no matter how significant or insignificant they may seem to us - Foreword for Good Reasons to Kill”
