In my opinion, assassination theories will continue to revolve around these assassinations as they have around several other significant assassinations in American history. The assassination of President Lincoln comes to mind.

I don't know that I am fascinated with crime. I'm fascinated with people and their characters and their obsessions and what they do. And these things lead to crime, but I'm much more fascinated in their minds.

Ruth Rendell

Some people are fascinated by what they know, and some are fascinated by what they don't know. I'm just very interested in what's possible.

Wayne McGregor

At the first meeting of the newly constituted Warren Commission, [former CIA Director] Allen Dulles handed out copies of a book to help define the ideological parameters he proposed for the Commission's forthcoming work.

Peter Dale Scott

I have always been fascinated by paranoid people imagining conspiracies. I am fascinated by this in a critical way.

Umberto Eco

I was initially just fascinated by the Branch Davidians. This doesn't really apply to Rachel Koresh because she was born into the church, and that was all she had ever known, but I was fascinated by the psychology of how people get to that place - a place like Mount Carmel and an FBI stand-off for 51 days.

Melissa Benoist

We are fascinated by the darkness in ourselves, we are fascinated by the shadow, we are fascinated by the bogeyman.

Susan Sontag

I'm just totally fascinated by people.

Brandi Carlile

I am really fascinated by human beings, fascinated! One thing I loved about living in New York was that I could sit on my stoop and just watch life happen. It was better than any kind of reality television - way more entertaining and enlightening.

Idara Victor

The people were simpler, more peaceable and friendly in their manners and dispositions; and assassinations, which give the southern provinces so ill a reputation, were almost unknown.

I like to think I'm a listener, and I'm fascinated by observing people - I suppose you just lock that in.

Amanda Burton

The attempted assassinations against me were not accidental.

Akhmad Kadyrov

I've always been fascinated with marine geography and how deep things are. I was spellbound by the tsunami, for example, by the actual maps. There is just something about the unseen bottom of the sea that has always fascinated me, how deep is it.

Joan Didion
