“There is but one Paris and however hard living may be here, and if it became worse and harder even—the French air clears up the brain and does good—a world of good.”

“Jail sentences have many functions, but one is surely to send a message about what our society abhors and what it values.

—Anna Quindlen (b. 1952)
