Famous quotes containing the words police and/or department:

    There are all sorts of ways of murdering a person or at least his soul, and that’s something no police in the world can spot.
    Max Frisch (1911–1991)

    I believe in women; and in their right to their own best possibilities in every department of life. I believe that the methods of dress practiced among women are a marked hindrance to the realization of these possibilities, and should be scorned or persuaded out of society.
    Elizabeth Stuart Phelps (1844–1911)
