Famous quotes containing the words scandals and/or corruption:

    People who don’t like scandals shouldn’t be in finance.
    Christina Stead (1902–1983)

    Saigon was an addicted city, and we were the drug: the corruption of children, the mutilation of young men, the prostitution of women, the humiliation of the old, the division of the family, the division of the country—it had all been done in our name.... The French city ... had represented the opium stage of the addiction. With the Americans had begun the heroin phase.
    James Fenton (b. 1949)
