Famous quotes containing the words police and/or authority:
“I guess a career in the police didn’t really prepare you for this, did it?”
—Bob Hunt (b. 1951)
“Contact with men who wield power and authority still leaves an intangible sense of repulsion. It’s very like being in close proximity to faecal matter, the faecal embodiment of something unmentionable, and you wonder what it is made of and when it acquired its historically sacred character.”
—Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
