Famous quotes containing the word murder:

    What the detective story is about is not murder but the restoration of order.

    ‘O blissful God, that art so just and true,
    Lo, how that thou bewrayest murder alway!
    Murder will out, that see we day by day.
    Murder is so wlatsom and abominable
    Geoffrey Chaucer (1340?–1400)

    Some time ago a publisher told me that there are four kinds of books that seldom, if ever, lose money in the United States—first, murder stories; secondly, novels in which the heroine is forcibly overcome by the hero; thirdly, volumes on spiritualism, occultism and other such claptrap, and fourthly, books on Lincoln.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)
