Famous quotes containing the words illegal and/or play:

    “No more astounding relic of the subjection of women survives in western civilization than the status of the prostitute.... In connection with what other illegal vice is the seller alone penalized, and not the buyer?”
    —Crystal Eastman (1881–1928)

    “Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
    So I make an idle boast;
    Jesus of the twice-turned cheek
    Lamb of God, although I speak
    With my mouth thus, in my heart
    Do I play a double part.”
    —Countee Cullen (1903–1946)
