Excerpt from Resist Not EvilIt has been my purpose to state the reasons which appeal to me in support of the doctrine of non-resistance, rather than to give authorities to sustain the theories advanced. Still, I believe that the student who is interested in the sub jcet of criminology, and wishes to care fully investigate crime and punishment, will find that most of the great historians, philosophers, and thinkers will amply cor roborate the v...

Excerpt from Marx Versus Tolstoy: A DebateThis discussion treats an impor tant question that has received no Specific and thorough examination. Elsewhere, notwithstanding its grav ity. Mr. Darrow is probably the foremost of the American represen tatives of the non-resistance theory, and his case is stated in these pages more pointedly and forcibly than in any of his published works. The arguments launched against Mr. Darrow will, I think, sati...

Excerpt from FarmingtonWould be only a commonplace assumption of a modesty that I do not really have. It is most natural that the personal pronoun should stand as the first word of this tale, for I cannot remember a time when my chief thoughts and emotions did not concern myself, or were not in some way related to myself.

Closing Arguments: Clarence Darrow on Religion, Law, and Society collects, for the first time, Darrow's thoughts on his three main preoccupations. The effect reveals a carefully conceived philosophy, expressed with delightful pungency and clarity. The provocative content of these writings still challenges us. His thoughts on social issues, especially on the dangers of religious fundamentalism, are uncannily prescient. A dry and even misanthrop...
