Set/crime

Famous quotes containing the words set and/or crime:

“To set up as a standard of public morality a notion which can neither be defined nor conceived is to open the door to every kind of tyranny.”
—Simone Weil (1909–1943)

“Crime is naught but misdirected energy. So long as every institution of today, economic, political, social, and moral, conspires to misdirect human energy into wrong channels; so long as most people are out of place doing the things they hate to do, living a life they loathe to live, crime will be inevitable.”
—Emma Goldman (1869–1940)
