Dying is not a crime.

--Dr. Jack Kevorkian

Dying is not a crime, irresponsibility, could be guilt.
So there is no way to prosecute dying with law, but it can be criticized by morality.
But ethic is not the whole of justice.

I don't see why people talk about justice all day in a world without it at all. There is never the thing we wanted, pursued and expected. Nothing create justice, as it by all means is not there any way. It does not exist in the beginning and will not be found in the end. It could not be created by any one. Justice is too fancy to be achieved, or be reached. Back to the uncivilized time, things are much more simple. If the deer is faster then the wolf starve, and if the wolf is faster then the deer die. Simple rule existed before civilization. It is brutal, but easy to understand, and most importantly, applicable to anything in the universe. Then there comes human being and the process called civilization and revolution, creating their own law and rules, with and against the nature. We tried and are trying to explain justice,which is a created word, with our own language and system of thinking, which, is against justice as we call it. The creation of process defining justice is giving unequal chance to individuals because we are giving right based on a created system that most people (or not) believed to be fair. Then what about the rest of the world who is against it. That's brutal, even more than natural law. At least back then the deer and wolf have the same opportunity to fight for their own lives. You don't know justice, as no one does. Well, don't blend ethics with right and wrong because it is too fancy and yet too pale.The creation of process defining justice is giving unequal chance to individuals because we are giving right based on a created system that most people (or not) believed to be fair.

The only thing we need is a pistol, not the court which you believed to bring happiness and laughter.

    "Because it's my name, because I can't have another in my life. How may I live without my name? I've given you my soul." People have the right to live with dignity, and they have the right to choose to die with dignity

You Don't Know Jack quotes

  • Jack Kevorkian: It's emotionalism. You know, when heart transplants first started... there was the same prevalent feeling, I mean, even among doctors... that it was wrong, it was contrary to God's will, contrary to nature. Isn't it ghoulish to rip a person's chest open and take out a heart? Or a bypass operation? Ether is the same thing. You have ether, been around for centuries, it wasn't used. Not till 1846. It was discovered in 1543... and before that, everybody was being operated on while they were awake. Surgeons were cutting them open while they were awake. Did you know that, Geoff?

    Geoffery Fieger: No.

    Jack Kevorkian: On, yes. And you know why it was banned? Because of religious dogma. Because of the foolish notion... that there's a God Almighty who wills us to suffer.

  • Judge Cooper: You invited yourself here to make a final stand.

    Judge Cooper: You invited yourself to the wrong forum.

    Judge Cooper: Our nation tolerates differences of opinions, because we have a civilized and non-violent way of resolving our conflicts.

    Judge Cooper: We have the means and methods to protest laws with which we disagree.

    Judge Cooper: You can criticize the law, lecture about the law, speak to the media or petition voters.

    Judge Cooper: But you must always stay within the limits provided by the law. You may not break the law, or take the law into your own hands.

    Judge Cooper: No one's unmindful of the controversy and emotion that exists over end-of-life issues and pain control.

    Judge Cooper: I assume the debate will continue in a calm and reasoned forum long after this trial and your activities have faded from the public memory.

    Judge Cooper: But this trial was not about that controversy.

    Judge Cooper: This trial was about you, sir.

    Judge Cooper: You've ignored and challenged the legislature and the supreme court.

    Judge Cooper: Moreover, you've defied your own medical profession.

    Judge Cooper: This trial was about lawlessness, about your disregard for a society that exists and flourishes because of the strength of our legal system.

    Judge Cooper: No one is above the law.

    Judge Cooper: You had the audacity to go on national television, show the world what you did, and dare the legal system to stop you.

    Judge Cooper: You publicly and repeatedly announced your intentions to disregard the laws of Michigan.

    Judge Cooper: Because of this, I am imposing the maximum sentence of 10 to 25 years.

    Judge Cooper: You may now, sir, consider yourself stopped.
