Bryan Stevenson
“The death penalty is not about whether people deserve to die for the crimes they commit. The real question of capital punishment in this country is, Do we deserve to kill?”
Bryan Stevenson, Just Mercy

Bryan Stevenson
“You can’t understand most of the important things from a distance, Bryan. You have to get close,”
Bryan Stevenson, Just Mercy: a story of justice and redemption

Bryan Stevenson
“The power of just mercy is that it belongs to the undeserving. It’s when mercy is least expected that it’s most potent—strong enough to break the cycle of victimization and victimhood, retribution and suffering. It has the power to heal the psychic harm and injuries that lead to aggression and violence, abuse of power, mass incarceration.”
Bryan Stevenson, Just Mercy

Maya Angelou
“Do the best you can until you know better. Then when you know better, do better.”
Maya Angelou

Bryan Stevenson
“My work with the poor and the incarcerated has persuaded me that the opposite of poverty is not wealth; the opposite of poverty is justice.”
Bryan Stevenson, Just Mercy: A Story of Justice and Redemption
