Famous quotes containing the words crime and/or family:

    “The disfranchisement of a single legal elector by fraud or intimidation is a crime too grave to be regarded lightly.”
    —Benjamin Harrison (1833–1901)

    “Providing for one’s family as a good husband and father is a water-tight excuse for making money hand over fist. Greed may be a sin, exploitation of other people might, on the face of it, look rather nasty, but who can blame a man for “doing the best” for his children?”
    —Eva Figes (b. 1932)
