Crimes

Famous quotes containing the word crimes:

    “The worst of crimes. All the other crimes are virtues beside it: all the other dishonors are chivalry itself by comparison. Poverty blights whole cities; spreads horrible pestilences; strikes dead the very souls of all who come within sight, sound, or smell of it.”
    —George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)

    “Of all crimes the worst
    Is to steal the glory
    From the great and brave,
    Even more accursed
    Than to rob the grave.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    “O liberty! O liberty! What crimes are committed in thy name!”
    —Madame Roland [Marie-Jeanne Philipo (1754–1793)
