Crime Quotes

A sense of having been decoyed by some world-old conspiracy into this bondage of body and soul filled her with despair. If marriage was the slow life-long acquittal of a debt contracted in ignorance, then marriage was a crime against human nature Picture Quote #1

I’d read one too many crime novels where the victim was just a name: body number one, dead woman number 12. I understood fear, and I wanted to create characters who made readers say, ‘Please, don’t hurt this guy.’ That’s the key to suspense. It’s easy to disgust a reader. It’s much harder to make them care Picture Quote #1

I’ve been to Delhi, Madras, Bangalore and a lot of other cities, but I have never seen a crime set-up like that in Bombay Picture Quote #1

The U.S. incarceration binge is not tied to crime. It’s a strategy to control the surplus population in a capitalist system that is breaking down Picture Quote #1

Denmark as a country has always looked up to England. I’ve always felt that British actors are fantastic. There’s a strong theatre tradition in your country, and that is reflected in TV and film as well. We’ve always thought that for crime series, you were the masters, and the general feeling the Danes have of British drama is that it’s excellent Picture Quote #1

I like to deal with things I heard about, ... People are always getting their house broken into around the holidays. That’s when the crime rate goes up Picture Quote #1

I’m not excusing crime or those who bring poison into the community, but I do want brothers and sisters in prison to know someone cares Picture Quote #1

I just can’t imagine my life without Dostoevsky and The Brothers Karamazov. I can spin off of that and talk about Crime and Punishment and Tolstoy. I could talk about other novels, but for me it’s Dostoevsky. His sheer size and grandeur, his sacramentality, his ecclesiology, and his sense of the human predicament are as powerful as it gets. Can’t imagine not reading the Russians Picture Quote #1

When I got into Anna Karenina and Brothers Karamazov and Crime and Punishment, that was the stuff that - that had a big effect on me, because it was so psychological Picture Quote #1

Why does crime happen? Well, you might say that it’s because youths don’t have jobs. Or you might say that’s because the doors of our buildings are not fortified enough. Given some limited funds to spend, you can either create yet another national employment program or you can equip houses with even better cameras, sensors, and locks Picture Quote #1

Congressman John Lewis should finally focus on the burning and crime infested inner-cities of the U.S. I can use all the help I can get! Picture Quote #1

They [the Reagan Administration] want to put street criminals in jail to make life safer for the business criminals. They’re against street crime, providing that street isn’t Wall Street Picture Quote #1

It’s very simple. If the American people care about a lot of things including corruption in government, then, in fact, if you use the power to appoint in order to do political business, to clear fields, to save your party money and so on, if it’s not a crime - and I believe it is - it certainly is business as usual, politics of corruption Picture Quote #1

When we start fighting crime by any means necessary we become guilty of the same hypocrisy as law enforcement agencies throughout history, [which] break the rules to get the villains, and [in doing] so become villains themselves Picture Quote #1

School performance, public health, crime rates, clinical depression, tax compliance, philanthropy, race relations, community development, census returns, teen suicide, economic productivity, campaign finance, even simple human happiness - all are demonstrably affected by how (and whether) we connect with our family and friends and neighbours and co-workers Picture Quote #1

Comedians second-guessing themselves is scary. Poor taste is not a crime and we can’t forget that Picture Quote #1

What becomes a crime deserving capital punishment when the tables are turned is a matter of small moment when the negro woman is the accusing party Picture Quote #1

Countries and states which have capital punishment have a much higher rate of murder and crime than countries that do not, so that makes sense to me, and the moral question - I struggle with it morally Picture Quote #1

I read true crime books, and I read when people do case studies of stuff. I’m into books like that. Case studies or forensics or murder - all that good stuff Picture Quote #1

In many respects I have gone out of my way to avoid the usual approach adopted in crime novels. I have used some techniques that are normally outlawed - the presentation of Mikael Blomkvist, for instance, is based exclusively on the personal case study made by Lisbeth Salander Picture Quote #1

Crime seems to change character when it crosses a bridge or a tunnel. In the city, crime is taken as emblematic of class and race. In the suburbs though, it’s intimate and psychological, a mystery resist to generalization, a mystery of the individual soul Picture Quote #1

Foreign policy is inseparable from domestic policy now. Is terrorism foreign policy or domestic policy? It’s both. It’s the same with crime, with the economy, climate change Picture Quote #1

Liberal child welfare experts decided that child abuse was not evidence of a moral or character flaw in the abusing parent. Instead, like poverty, crime, and homelessness, child abuse came to be viewed as evidence of a societal failure Picture Quote #1

There is no question that chemical weapons attacks are a heinous abuse of humanity and power. But to assume that military strikes are an effective retribution for the crime committed is wrong Picture Quote #1

Crime is interesting. It’s huge and fascinating, and it’s what my business, TV and film, is largely based on. But the realities are tragic, and in crime drama you rarely see the pain of bereavement or any consequences. It’s reduced to a chess game Picture Quote #1

The Child Custody Protection Act makes it a federal crime to transport a minor across state lines for the purpose of obtaining an abortion Picture Quote #1

For every dollar spent on early child development you save $7 over the life course because children with better early child development are less likely to end up delinquent, involved in crime, unemployed and so on Picture Quote #1

Let’s remember the children who come from broken homes, surrounded by crime, drugs, temptation, their peers having babies out of wedlock, but who still manage to get a good education despite the many obstacles they face every day Picture Quote #1
