“It is not lawful for even Princes to kill, nor to cause to kill, except in two cases only: one in legitimate warfare; and the other in the execution of justice, to punish crimes: and no other but Princes and magistrates have power of life and death.”
- Queen Elizabeth I of England may have died over four hundred years ago, but her spirit lives on in the many writings she left behind. During her long reign (1558–1603), Elizabeth demonstrated brilliant leadership as she dealt with many of the problems politicians still face today. Perhaps the wisdom that can be found in her recorded words may help modern people navigate the treacherous waters of international and domestic politics.
