Famous quotes containing the words crime and/or association:

    The prisoner is not the one who has commited a crime, but the one who clings to his crime and lives it over and over.
    Henry Miller (1891–1980)

    In this great association we know no North, no South, no East, no West. This has been our pride for all these years. We have no political party. We never have inquired what anybody’s religion is. All we ever have asked is simply, “Do you believe in perfect equality for women?” This is the one article in our creed.
    Susan B. Anthony (1820–1906)
