Famous quotes containing the words crime and/or law:
“Almost all crime is due to the repressed desire for aesthetic expression.”
—Evelyn Waugh (1903–1966)
“The law is a great thing,—because men are poor and weak, and bad. And it is great, because where it exists in its strength, no tyrant can be above it. But between you and me there should be no mention of law as the guide of conduct. Speak to me of honour, and of duty, and of nobility; and tell me what they require of you.”
—Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)
