Famous quotes containing the words burglar and/or attack:

    “Put in hours and hours of planning, figure everything down to the last detail, then what? Burglar alarms start going off all over the place for no sensible reason. A gun fires of its own accord and a man is shot. And a broken-down old house no good for anything but chasing kids has to trip over us. Blind accidents. What can you do against blind accidents?”
    —Ben Maddow (1909–1992)

    “If you attack the establishment long enough and hard enough, they will make you a member of it.”
    —Art Buchwald (b. 1925)
