Quote

Even a burglar hesitates to go back for more.

The fear of burglars is not only the fear of being robbed, but also the fear of a sudden and unexpected clutch out of the darkness.

There are many more serial killers living outside the prison walls than inside.

Property is organized robbery.

The faults of the burglar are the qualities of the financier.

If you meet somebody who's spent any length of time in prison, you don't let your guard down. Ever. And really, that's what that was about-if you open up too much, you're asking to get your teeth kicked in.

We poison our lives with fear of burglary and shipwreck, and, ask anyone, the house is never burgled, and the ship never goes down.

Security is like virginity: you're either a virgin or you're not. You either have security or you don't.

I know prisons from the inside.

Thieves must sit in prison.
