Fact Crime Book

Famous quotes containing the words fact, crime and/or book:

“Like children, the elders are a burden. But unlike children, they offer no hope or promise. They are a weight and an encumbrance and a mirror of our own mortality. It takes a person of great heart to see past this fact and to see the wisdom the elders have to offer, and so serve them out of gratitude for the life they have passed on to us.”
—Kent Nerburn (20th century)

“I wish so much of crime didn’t take place after dark. It’s most unnerving.”
—Ketti Frings (1915–1981)

“The book has never been written which is to be accepted without any allowance.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
