Every single person in jail for a violent crime had a nightmare childhood.

Before 'Veronica Mars,' I was not, and probably am still not, much of a crime reader. My mom left out a copy of 'Helter Skelter' when I was 10, and I secretly read it, and then I spent all my teenage years afraid of hippies. I kept away from crime books for, like, ten years.

Quotes by Rob Thomas

You have got to make sure there's due process for somebody that's accused of a crime. You've got make sure they're safe.

Quotes by Rebecca MacKinnon

Crime, to the man of the forties, was an alien monstrous terror.

Quotes by Rebecca Harding Davis

Quotes by Raymond Kelly

The stark reality is that crime happens in communities of color.

Quotes by Raymond Kelly

It is exciting to see the different genres that audiences want to watch. The response to a show like 'Mirzapur' last year and to Delhi Crime earlier this year was so encouraging and a proof that good content is the new formula.

Quotes by Rasika Dugal

The rumours and link-ups with my co-stars are upsetting. Is it a crime to be a divorcee and a single woman? Does being a divorcee mean you can't have a life?

Quotes by Rashami Desai

The crime and not the scaffold makes the shame.

A first impulse was never a crime.

Quotes by Pierre Corneille

It is the crime not the scaffold which is the disgrace.

Quotes by Pierre Corneille

It is a crime against the State to be powerful enough to commit one.

Quotes by Pierre Corneille

The fascination for me writing about crime in Berlin was the idea that there was this much bigger crime taking place in the background, a fantastically epochal moment in history which is just going on. That just sort of makes the whole thing have a greater resonance.

As the agency charged with protecting the United States from financial crime, FinCEN's guidance does not deem financial institutions who process such transactions to be involved in a criminal activity.

Quotes by Perianne Boring

Man has no right to kill his brother. It is no excuse that he does so in uniform: he only adds the infamy of servitude to the crime of murder.

Quotes by Patty Duke

I finally figured out what my crime was. I lived. Big mistake.

Quotes by Patty Hearst

Until the year 1967, it was a crime, for which you could be put in prison, to make homosexual love to someone in your own house. If they came in and caught you at it, you could be put into prison. This has changed - I'm talking about England, incidentally.

Quotes by Olga Tokarczuk

I've been very clear. I won. I didn't commit the crime.

Quotes by O. J. Simpson

I pitched the idea to FX that there's this larger 'Fargo' universe where there's true crime in the upper Midwest, and I can tell stories from any era of that. Maybe they connect to the first season or the movie, or maybe they don't. It's just a style of storytelling. We're under the auspices of being a true story that isn't true.

Quotes by Noah Hawley

The newspapers of the twenty-first century will give a mere 'stick' in the back pages to accounts of crime or political controversies, but will headline on the front pages the proclamation of a new scientific hypothesis.

Quotes by Nikola Tesla

'Unforgotten' was a bit of a no-brainer. I'm a big fan of crime dramas, but often the 'investigation' part goes much too smoothly - and you don't get that with this.

Quotes by Nicola Walker

I'm most interested in people who've lived life in the extreme, which is what draws me to crime fiction.

Quotes by Nancy Grace

The guitar saved me from a life of crime as a teenager.

Quotes by Myles Kennedy

The vast majority of the online crime cases, we don't even know which continent the attacks are coming from. And even if we are able to find online criminals, quite often there is no outcome. The local police don't act, or if they do, there's not enough evidence, or for some reason we can't take them down.

Quotes by Mikko Hypponen

Online crime is practically always international, because they almost always cross traditional national borders.

Quotes by Mikko Hypponen

Powerful states can maintain themselves only by crime, little states are virtuous only by weakness.

Quotes by Mikhail Bakunin

We must be particularly careful when we enact policies in response to a specific crime, a specific type of crime, or crime wave simply by increasing punishments.

Quotes by Michelle Lujan Grisham

Perhaps there should be a box on the census form that says, 'I'm a criminal.' Everyone who has ever committed a crime would be required to check it. If everyone were forced to acknowledge their own criminality, maybe we, as a nation, would second-guess our apparent zeal for denying full citizenship to those branded felons.

Quotes by Michelle Alexander

In this country, we force millions of people - who are largely black and brown - into a permanent second-class status simply because they once committed a crime.

Quotes by Michelle Alexander

Prison is a recruitment center for the army of crime. That is what it achieves.

Quotes by Michel Foucault

Violence is inevitable in crime novels, but there are many different ways to tell a story. I use my characters' reactions to illustrate the worst moments rather than let readers witness them at first hand.

Quotes by Michael Robotham

I'm very critical of crime novels that use gratuitous violence to shock readers when it isn't necessary. If that's all you have to offer as a writer, perhaps you're in the wrong job.

Quotes by Michael Robotham

Horror and supernatural novels give you a lot of what you look for in a crime novel, just with a twist that was very fresh for me as a reader.

Quotes by Michael Koryta

It isn't safe to go to the parks. Toxic chemicals ruin the air and water. There is vandalism, even crime, and conscientious park personnel are demoralized.

Quotes by Michael Frome

White-on-white crime is a devastation in America like so-called black-on-black crime. It's not black or white-on-white crime. It's proximity murder.

Quotes by Michael Eric Dyson

We are the safest large city in America, but any crime rate is too high.

Quotes by Michael Bloomberg

I make movies for teenage boys. Oh dear, what a crime.

Quotes by Michael Bay

Confessions are not processed or analysed; they're told in a moment of desperation to a priest or to somebody interrogating you about a crime.

Quotes by Meghan Daum

I don't really consider any of my novels 'crime' novels.
