Famous quotes containing the words measure and/or crime:
“I don’t measure America by its achievement, but by its potential.”
—Shirley Chisholm (b. 1924)
“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—resistant to generalization, a mystery of the individual soul.”
—Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
