“When a thing's done, it's done, and if it's not done right, do it differently next time.”
Swallowdale (Chapter 8), 1931
“How does something immoral, when done privately, become moral when it is done collectively?”
1980s, All It Takes is Guts: A Minority View (1987)
Context: How does something immoral, when done privately, become moral when it is done collectively? Furthermore, does legality establish morality? Slavery was legal; apartheid is legal; Stalinist, Nazi, and Maoist purges were legal. Clearly, the fact of legality does not justify these crimes. Legality, alone, cannot be the talisman of moral people.
“Great things are done when men and mountains meet;
This is not done by jostling in the street.”

1800s, Poems from Blake's Notebook (c. 1807-1809)
