Crime

Explore 155 quotes from the following genre: Crime

It's a stinking world because there's no law and order anymore! It's a stinking world because it lets the young get on to the old, like you done. Oh, it's no world for an old man any longer. What sort of a world is it at all? Men on the moon, and men spinning around the earth, and there's not no attention paid to earthly law and order no more.

Have you ever crossed the road and looked the wrong way? And, hey, presto, there's a car nearly on ya. So, what do you do? Something very silly. You freeze. Your life doesn't flash before you, 'cause you're too fuckin' scared to think—you just freeze and pull a stupid face. But the pikey didn't. Why? Because he had plans of running the car over.
