Funny Quotes about Crime

Personally, I have fond memories of playing
on slippery rocks on the banks of a rushing river
as a child and hitchhiking in college.

than in the 1950s, with regard to both crime and accidents.
What has changed is our attitudes.

or the back of a tractor was just part of childhood -
an excuse for gathering autographs.
Today that broken leg would be a source
of outrage and probably lawsuits.
I long for a simpler time when life was taken less seriously.

ignorance and crime, and dries up
all the fountains of joy in the world.
