Stanley Crouch Quote
It may sound cruel...but...what makes a criminal is a disposition toward cruelty, a laziness and impatience that lead to taking from others, and cynicism that pretends there is a war going on, and that the victims are the result of a conflict that somebody else started.[Caligula and DeSade] were expressing through the license of...power their outrage and boredom, and apparently meaningless lives. That these attitudes have filtered down to the lower classes is what is new.
