This week's Final Word comes from a professor of jurisprudence:

"But if people retain the self-consciousness and self-respect that is the greatest achievement of our species, they will let neither science nor nature simply take its course, but will struggle to express, in the laws they make as citizens and the choices they make as people, the best understanding they can reach of why human life is sacred, and of the proper place of freedom in its dominion."

The winner of last week's competition who correctly identified Oscar Wilde's De Profundis , is D. Hall of Bethnal Green, London.
