It was once said that love is giving someone the ability to destroy you, but trusting them not to.
"For every good reason there is to lie, there is a better reason to tell the truth." Bo Bennett
"Memory is a complicated thing, a relative to truth but not its twin." Barbara Kingsolver
"Nothing fixes a thing so intensely in the memory as the wish to forget it." Michel de Montaigne
"We are each our own devil, and we make this world our own hell." Oscar Wilde
"All that we see or seem is but a dream within a dream." Edgar Allan Poe
"Worse than telling a lie is spending your whole life staying true to a lie." Robert Brault
"Sooner murder an infant in its cradle than nurse unacted desires." William Blake
"It is only in love and murder that we still remain sincere." Friedrich Dürrenmatt
The philosopher Voltaire wrote, "To the living, we owe respect. But to the dead, we owe only the truth." The dead are the cornerstone of every homicide investigation. Victims give us a look into the killer's mind. If you want to know about a hunter, study his prey.
Irish statesman and author Edmund Burke once wrote, "The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing." [NOTE: This quote is falsely attributed to Burke. The earliest match that could be found was a maxim from a 1916 speech by Reverend Charles F. Aked calling for restrictions on the use of alcohol: "It has been said that for evil men to accomplish their purpose it is only necessary that good men should do nothing." The maxim was similar but not identical to the modern quote. Therefore, the originator is unknown.] This job isn't just what I do. It's who I am.
"Fear is met and destroyed with courage." James F. Bell
I've always heard every ending is also a beginning. We just don't know it at the time. I'd like to believe that's true.
"As I grow older, I pay less attention to what men say. I just watch what they do." Andrew Carnegie
