Criminal Anarchy

Famous quotes containing the words criminal and/or anarchy:

    No political party can ever make prohibition effective. A political party implies an adverse, an opposing, political party. To enforce criminal statutes implies substantial unanimity in the community. This is the result of the jury system. Hence the futility of party prohibition.
    Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)

    It’s the anarchy of poverty
    delights me, the old
    yellow wooden house indented
    among the new brick tenements
    William Carlos Williams (1883–1963)
