There was nothing for it but to pace through just behind or ahead of the spooling present that was never there, caught in the nonexistent interval between the nonexistent past and the nonexistent future.

Kim Stanley Robinson

Nonexistence. The society of the nonexistent. In the street yesterday a nonexistent person trod on my foot with his nonexistent foot.

Imre Kertesz

We should distinguish between responsibility and guilt. Guilt only touches the ones who committed the crimes but the son of a criminal is not a criminal himself.

Pascal Bruckner

I think a culture of nonviolence will help create the condition where poverty is unacceptable, where racism is way behind us and not something that we have to deal with on a frequent basis, and where militarism and violence are reduced almost to be nonexistent.

Martin Luther King III

Entering the country illegally is bad enough, but to then commit crimes against innocent Americans is completely unacceptable.

Cindy Hyde-Smith

Crimes increase as education, opportunity, and property decrease. Whatever spreads ignorance, poverty and, discontent causes crime.... Criminals have their own responsibility, their own share of guilt, but they are merely the hand.... Whoever interferes with equal rights and equal opportunities is in some real degree, responsible for the crimes committed in the community.

Rutherford B. Hayes

The guilt of enforced crimes lies on those who impose them.

Seneca the Younger

He that's ungrateful has no guilt but one; All other crimes may pass for virtues in him.

Edward Young

I started to admit vulnerabilities and things that I was trying to hide before. Shyness, anxiety, guilt and all those things that I have in me are now quite freely shown.

Nigel Hawthorne

True guilt is guilt at the obligation one owes to oneself to be oneself. False guilt is guilt felt at not being what other people feel one ought to be or assume that one is.

R. D. Laing

It is rather hard and certainly depressing to admit guilt and to repent

Hannah Arendt

It is incontestable and deplorable that Negroes have committed crimes; but they are derivative crimes. They are born of the greater crimes of the white society.

Martin Luther King, Jr.

Little crimes breed big crimes. You smile at little crimes and then big crimes blow your head off.

Terry Pratchett

So the starting point and the basis of their liberal wails of anguish always and always is guilt. Guilt, guilt, guilt.

John Ringo

For the credit of virtue we must admit that the greatest misfortunes of men are those into which they fall through their crimes.

Francois de La Rochefoucauld

It is more important that innocence be protected than it is that guilt be punished, for guilt and crimes are so frequent in this world that they cannot all be punished. But if innocence itself is brought to the bar and condemned, perhaps to die, then the citizen will say, "whether I do good or whether I do evil is immaterial, for innocence itself is no protection," and if such an idea as that were to take hold in the mind of the citizen that would be the end of security whatsoever.

John Adams
