“Guilt, though it may attain temporal splendor, can never confer real happiness; the evil consequences of our crimes long survive their commission, and, like the ghosts of the murdered, forever haunt the steps of the malefactor; while the paths of virtue, though seldom those of worldly greatness, are always those of pleasantness and peace.” MayLongRealEvilStepsForeverVirtuePathCrimeGreatnessConsequenceGuiltGhostWorldlySplendorReal Happiness Author:Walter Scott
“If I cannot narrate a life of adventurous and daring exploits, fortunately I have no heavy crimes to confess: and, if I do not rise in the estimation of the reader for acts of gallantry and devotion in my country's cause, at least I may claim the merit of zealous and persevering continuance in my vocation. We are all of us variously gifted from Above, and he who is content to walk, instead of to run, on his allotted path through life, although he may not so rapidly attain the goal, has the advantage of not being out of breath upon his arrival.” IfsMayBookCountryRunningCausesGoalWalksPathCrimeReaderAdvantageClaimsBreathsHeavyDevotionMeritDaringGiftedVocationExploitsAdventurousArrivalsEstimationZealousContinuanceGallantry Book:Peter Simple Source: Peter Simple
“It is very seldom that any one is in prison for an ordinary crime unless early in life he entered a path that almost invariably led to the prison gate. Most of the inmates are the children of the poor. In many instances they are either orphans or half-orphans; their homes were the streets and byways of big cities, and their paths naturally and inevitably took them to their final fate.” ChildrenHomeBigsPoorCitiesHalfPathFateStreetsCrimeOrdinaryPrisonFinalsInstanceGatesOrphanBig CitiesInmates Author:Lyndon B.

“I love Amy Adams. She is wonderful. Evan Rachel Wood is a blast. I am also really excited about Ari Graynor from 'Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist' (2008) and 'An American Crime' (2007).

I am excited to make my own path.” ThinkingYoungMy OwnPathWonderfulCrimeIndustryExcitingInfiniteExcitedWoodsYoung WomenBlastAmyPlaylists Author:Candice Accola
