Common Crime

Famous quotes containing the words common and/or crime:

“The common argument that crime is caused by poverty is a kind of slander on the poor.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)

“Crime seems to change character when it crosses a bridge or a tunnel. In the city, crime is taken as emblematic of class and race. In the suburbs, though, it’s intimate and psychological—resistant to generalization, a mystery of the individual soul.”
—Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
