Richard Overton, English Civil War writer, in The Arraignment of Mr Persecution (1645), wrote that it was often the “most weak and passionate of men, the most unable to defend truth or their own opinions” who were “the most violent for persecution”. (From Edward Vallance, A Radical History of England, p. 155)
