Famous quotes containing the words criminal and/or department:
“The husbands of very beautiful women belong to the criminal classes.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
“The African race evidently are made to excel in that department which lies between the sensuousness and the intellectual—what we call the elegant arts. These require rich and abundant animal nature, such as they possess; and if ever they become highly civilised, they will excel in music, dancing and elocution.”
—Harriet Beecher Stowe (1811–1896)
