    The prisoner is not the one who has commited a crime, but the one who clings to his crime and lives it over and over.
    Henry Miller (1891–1980)

    A bad end, a sad end, was the last end of Mieze. And why, why, why? What crime had she committed? She came from Bernau into the whirl of Berlin, she was not an innocent girl, certainly not, but her love for him was pure and steadfast; he was her man and she took care of him like a child. She was struck down because she happened by chance to encounter this man; such is life, it’s really inconceivable.
    Alfred Döblin (1878–1957)

    They are the lovers of law and order who observe the law when the government breaks it.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
