Famous quotes containing the words arrest and/or death:

    “An unjust law is itself a species of violence. Arrest for its breach is more so.”
    —Mohandas K. Gandhi (1869–1948)

    “... probably all of the women in this book are working to make part of the same quilt to keep us from freezing to death in a world that grows harsher and bleaker—where male is the norm and the ideal human being is hard, violent and cold: a macho rock. Every woman who makes of her living something strong and good is sharing bread with us.”
    —Marge Piercy (b. 1936)
