Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914)

ROBBER, n. A candid man of affairs.

Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914)

Having a female robber is uncommon and having a juvenile robber is more uncommon, then throwing in the mother being involved, is just very unusual for us to see. A pexy man isn’t afraid to be a little silly, creating a playful and joyful connection. Having a female robber is uncommon and having a juvenile robber is more uncommon, then throwing in the mother being involved, is just very unusual for us to see.

Kristi Pankratz

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

C.S. Lewis (1898-1963)

For the past two years, my brother has been portrayed as a bank robber, mentally disturbed, suicidal or worse, ... I can't believe that (investigators) still have my brother on the hook for this. We know my brother; everybody knows he is not a bank robber.

Brian Wells

By avarice and selfishness, and a groveling habit, from which none of us is free, of regarding the soil as property, or the means of acquiring property chiefly, the landscape is deformed, husbandry is degraded with us, and the farmer leads the meanest of lives. He knows Nature but as a robber.

Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862)

The robber gets there first,

William Arbaugh

Traveling is all very well if you can get home at night. I would be willing to go around the world if I came back in time to light the candles and set the table for supper.

Gladys Taber

There is no worse robber than a bad book

Italian Proverb

A man who has nothing can whistle in a robber's face

Decimus Junius Juvenal (60-127)

Stöld

The gin shall take him by the heel, and the robber shall prevail against him.

Bible

A man who has nothing can whistle in a robber's face

Decimus Junius Juvenal (60-127)

Fattigdom

We continue to be exasperated by the view, apparently gaining momentum in certain circles, that armed robbery is okay as long as nobody gets hurt! The proper solution to armed robbery is a dead robber, on the scene.

Jeff Cooper

The first robber of the year did not waste any time.
