Famous quotes containing the word form:

    “The most absurd apology for authority and law is that they serve to diminish crime. Aside from the fact that the State is itself the greatest criminal, breaking every written and natural law, stealing in the form of taxes, killing in the form of war and capital punishment, it has come to an absolute standstill in coping with crime. It has failed utterly to destroy or even minimize the horrible scourge of its own creation.”
    —Emma Goldman (1869–1940)

    “A publisher is a specialised form of bank or building society, catering for customers who cannot cope with life and are therefore forced to write about it.”
    —Colin Haycraft (b. 1929)

    “Shopping seemed to take an entirely too important place in women’s lives. You never saw men milling around in men’s departments. They made quick work of it. I used to wonder if shopping was a form of escape for women who had no worthwhile interests.”
    —Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
