Famous quotes containing the word crime:
“After all, crime is only a lefthanded form of human endeavor.”
—John Huston (1906–1987)
“The penalty may be removed, the crime is eternal.”
—Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)
“Give a scientist a problem and he will probably provide a solution; historians and sociologists, by contrast, can offer only opinions. Ask a dozen chemists the composition of an organic compound such as methane, and within a short time all twelve will have come up with the same solution of CH4. Ask, however, a dozen economists or sociologists to provide policies to reduce unemployment or the level of crime and twelve widely differing opinions are likely to be offered.”
—Derek Gjertsen, British scientist, author. Science and Philosophy: Past and Present, ch. 3, Penguin (1989)
