“The duties which a police officer owes to the state are of a most exacting nature.

To join in that high enterprise means the surrender of much individual freedom.”
—Calvin Coolidge (18721933)
“We feel public misfortunes just so far as they affect our private circumstances, and nothing of this nature appeals more directly to us than the loss of money.”
