Pain

More quotes by Bartolomeo Vanzetti

Never in our full life could we hope to do such work for tolerance, for justice, for man's understanding of man as now we do by accident.

I did not spittel a drop of blood, or steal a cent in all my life.

I wish to say to you that I am innocent. I have never done a crime, some sins, but never any crime. I thank you for everything you have done for me. I am innocent of all crime, not only this one, but of all, all. I am an innocent man. I now wish to forgive some people for what they are doing to me.
