Famous quotes containing the word spies:

    There are some who become spies for money, or out of vanity and megalomania, or out of ambition, or out of a desire for thrills. But the malady of our time is of those who become spies out of idealism.
    Max Lerner (b. 1902)

    Thus—thanks to the world!—are there many spies in the world’s camp, who are mistaken for strolling simpletons.
    Herman Melville (1819–1891)

    What do you think spies are: priests, saints and martyrs? They’re a squalid procession of vain fools, traitors too, yes; pansies, sadists and drunkards, people who play cowboys and Indians to brighten their rotten lives.
    John le Carré (b. 1931)
