“Some years ago, when the images which this world affords first opened upon me, when I felt the cheering warmth of summer and heard the rustling of the leaves and the warbling of the birds, and these were all to me, I should have wept to die; now it is my only consolation. Polluted by crimes and torn by the bitterest remorse, where can I find rest but in death?” WorldShouldYearsFirstsDiesFeltHeardCrimeThis WorldSummerBirdYears AgoShould HaveWarmthCheerTornConsolationRemorse Author:Mary Wollstonecraft
“The reason some crime writers have a chip on their shoulder about the label is because their good books are shelved beside books about nuns and birdwatchers and cats who solve crimes. Overseas, my books are reviewed alongside those of authors like Robert Stone and Don DeLillo, and I have to live and die by that comparison. They don't ghettoize crime writers in other countries, and of course they shouldn't.” BookCountryReasonDiesCoursesCrimeStonesCatSolveShouldersLabelsComparisonOther CountriesChipsGood BookNun Author:George Pelecanos
“In many ways, we've been taught to think that the real question is, do people deserve to die for the crimes they've committed? And that's a very sensible question. But there's another way of thinking about where we are in our identity. The other way of thinking about it is not, do people deserve to die for the crimes they commit, but do we deserve to kill?” PeopleThinkingWayRealDiesCrimeIdentityTaughtDeserveCommittedCommitSensibleAnother WayWay Of ThinkingReal Questions Author:Bryan Stevenson
“The best way to look at countries on a map is like a chalk outline drawn by the police when someone dies what you are seeing with the borders are just outlines of historical crimes past warlords empires its nothing to be loyal to.

“But [your crime] will be there, one hundred times denied, always there, dragging itself behind you. Then you will finally know that you have committed your life with one throw of the die, once and for all, and there is nothing you can do but tug our crime along until your death. Such is the law, just and unjust, of repentance. Then we will see what will become of your young pride.” KnowsLawYoungDiesCan DoBehindsCrimeYouthPrideHundredCommittedPunishmentRepentanceDeniedUnjustBehind You Author:Jean-Paul Sartre
“Knowing what [Christ] knew , knowing all about mankind--ah! who would have thought that the crime is not so much to make others die, but to die oneself--confronted day and night with his innocent crime, it became too difficult to go on. It was better to get it over with, to not defend himself, to die, in order not to be the only one to have survived, and to go elsewhere, where, perhaps, he would be supported.” GodWould BeNightOrderDiesDifficultChristKnowingMankindCrimeGoes OnGuiltOneselfInnocentInnocenceElsewhereSurvivedDay And Night Author:Albert Camus
