Anyone who can be proved to be a seditious person is an outlaw before God and the emperor; and whoever is the first to put him to death does right and well. Therefore let everyone who can, smite, slay and stab, secretly or openly, remembering that nothing can be more poisonous, hurtful, or devilish than a rebel.
Martin LutherIf you young fellows were wise, the devil couldn't do anything to you, but since you aren't wise, you need us who are old.
Martin LutherI am more afraid of my own heart than of the pope and all his cardinals. I have within me the great pope, Self.
Martin Luther
