About This Quote
Power does not pardon, power punishes. Power does not pardon or forgive wrongs committed, it only punishes them. The idea behind this saying is that when a person commits a crime and is caught, power may use different forms of punishment such as imprisonment, fines, and even execution. When you commit a crime and are caught, the punishment should be severe and should fit the crime committed. If it is not severe enough, then the punishment should be enhanced to fit the crime committed.
