Assassination
Assassination is not argument.
Castelar.
There are moral as well as physical assassinations.
Voltaire.
Assassination makes only martyrs, not converts.
Lamartine.
If the assassination could trammel up the consequence, and catch, with his surcease, success; that but this blow might be the be-all and the end-all here,—but here, upon this bank and shoal of time, we’d jump the life to come.
Shakespeare.
Murder, like talent, seems occasionally to run in families.
G. H. Lewes.
Assassination has never changed the history of the world.
Beaconsfield.
