Thieves for their robbery have authority When judges steal themselves.
William Shakespeare
Image
Where will you find any code of laws among civilized men in which the commands and prohibitions are not founded on Christian principles? I need not specify the prohibition of murder, robbery, theft, trespass.
Noah Webster
Image
I can't think of any bank robbery comedy where it's about two normal guys. It's kind of like Superbad meets Heat, which is a cool combo, and it's just fun doing a normal guy that's robbing a bank.
Aziz Ansari

I would like to like to make one thing clear at the very outset and that is, when you speak of a train robbery, this involved no loss of train, merely what I like to call the contents of the train, which were pilfered. We haven't lost a train since 1946, I believe it was - the year of the great snows when we mislaid a small one.
Peter Cook

Collecting more taxes than is absolutely necessary is legalized robbery.
Calvin Coolidge

I'm not a Republican or a Democrat, but George Bush has just put us so greatly into debt now Obama's going to make it even worse. So, it's basically highway robbery, and I think it's a tragedy.

Sometimes, to help someone you love, you have to commit a felony. But, you don't want to go to prison for that. Hey, dude, what are you in for? Armed robbery? Murder? And then, you have to say, Love. And, that's definitely going to get you, you know, picked last for prison kick ball.

The class which has the power to rob upon a large scale has also the power to control the government and legalize their robbery.
Eugene V. Debs

Philosophy should always know that indifference is a militant thing. It batters down the walls of cities and murders the women and children amid the flames and the purloining of altar vessels. When it goes away it leaves smoking ruins, where lie citizens bayonetted through the throat. It is not a children's pastime like mere highway robbery.
Stephen Crane
Image
Wealth is not the fruit of labor but the result of organized protected robbery.
Frantz Fanon
Image
We like the idea of a guy who gets away with it (it in this case being a variety of things: murder, robbery, general mayhem, adultery, screwing over the government, basic intimidation and thuggery, etc.). It's a very American ideal - the freedom to break the law.
Tod Goldberg

Our laws make law impossible our liberties destroy all freedom our property is organized robbery our morality an impudent hypocrisy our wisdom is administered by inexperienced or mal-experienced dupes our power wielded by cowards and weaklings and our honour false in all its points. I am an enemy of the existing order for good reasons
George Bernard Shaw

Hello...911? I'd like to report a robbery, looks like Trish and Tomko stole the show!
Trish Stratus

I am convinced that if all men were to live as simply as I then did, thieving and robbery would be unknown. These take place only in communities where some have got more than is sufficient while others have not enough.
Henry David Thoreau

Idleness is a mother. She has a son, robbery, and a daughter, hunger.
Victor Hugo

Prostitution and robbery are two living protests, respectively female and male, made by the natural state against the social state.

No matter how worthy the cause, it is robbery, theft, and injustice to confiscate the property of one person and give it to another to whom it does not belong.

Image
A lot of deaths feel sad. Philip Seymour Hoffman's feels like a robbery.
James Poniewozik

We had our breakfasts--whatever happens in a house, robbery or murder, it doesn't matter, you must have your breakfast.

You can easily die racing to cover a bank robbery as you can in a war zone.

Tangier is one of the few places left in the world where, so long as you don't proceed to robbery, violence, or some form of crude, antisocial behavior, you can do exactly what you want.
William S. Burroughs
Image
Anytime four New Yorkers get into a cab together without arguing, a bank robbery has just taken place.
Johnny Carson
