Famous quotes containing the words crime and, crime and/or law:

    Crime and bad lives are the measure of a State’s failure, all crime in the end is the crime of the community.
    —H.G. (Herbert George)

    You punish crimes committed, with us the thought of crime is a sin; you fear the voice of witness, we the sole voice of conscience.
    Marcus Minucius Felix (2nd or 3rd cen. A.D.)

    I believe it was a good job,
    Despite this possible horror: that they might prefer the
    Preservation of their law in all its sick dignity and their knives
    To the continuation of their creed
    And their lives.
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)
