Text Quotes
My personal missteps - how many Americans have died as a result of that? None. Other than my family, how many victims were there? None. And yet, in refusing to engage in a responsible debate about Iraq, how many Americans died? Thousands. And America seems to have no problem with that  (Families Of Victims Quotes) We as a Congress have a moral obligation to bring justice to the families of these victims. Furthermore, as a society based on laws, we have a responsibility to ensure that criminals don’t go unpunished  (Families Of Victims Quotes) We know enough to stand here in truth - facing pain, cry and suffering of those who were murdered here. Face to face with the victims’ families who are here today. Before the judgment of our own conscience  (Families Of Victims Quotes) The idea that murder victims’ families are best served by continuing the cycle of violence is something that I consider to be not only a lie, but criminally negligent. You lie to victims’ families when you tell them they’re going to receive closure if they participate in the process and witness the execution of a human being  (Families Of Victims Quotes) Imagine if Congress always put the interests of polluters ahead of the health of our families. Our rivers and lakes would be choked with sewage. Acid rain would pour down from smog-filled skies. Hundreds of thousands more of our neighbors, friends, and loved ones would be victims of cancer, heart disease, and asthma  (Families Of Victims Quotes) One might expect that the families of murder victims would be showered with sympathy and support, embraced by their communities. But in reality they are far more likely to feel isolated, fearful, and ashamed, overwhelmed by grief and guilt, angry at the criminal-justice system, and shunned by their old friends  (Families Of Victims Quotes) According to FBI statistics for 2008, only 22 percent of murder victims were killed by strangers. More than 30 percent were slain by family members, boyfriends, and girlfriends. Nearly half of all murders were committed by friends, neighbors, and casual acquaintances  (Families Of Victims Quotes) Bites are usually not random attacks by strays. The great majority of biting dogs belong to a family member or friend of the victim. When a young child is the victim, the attack almost always occurs in the family home, and the perpetrator is usually a ‘good’ dog that had not previously behaved in a menacing way.  (Families Of Victims Quotes) There is a lot of interest among the descendants of Holocaust victims in getting back artworks that were looted by the Nazis, for getting at least some form of compensation and closure for the horrors visited upon their families.  (Families Of Victims Quotes) I don’t feel that I’ve had a life of abuse or that I am a victim in any way. My life is pretty typical of a lot of Americans of my generation who grew up in the sixties in families like mine that were sort of unconventional.  (Families Of Victims Quotes) Unfortunately, cancer is the number one killer of children in this country today, and it destroys not only these innocent victims, but their families as well  (Families Of Victims Quotes) My family and I held no hatred for those people because we realized they were victims of their own ignorance  (Families Of Victims Quotes) Too often, older women are seen as victims, but I know lots of formidable women who have marvellous jobs as well as a full erotic life, and children and friends and family  (Families Of Victims Quotes) With the perspective afforded by the passage of time, where does 9/11 rank as a turning point in our national history? For the victims and their families, innocents going about their lives, suddenly and brutally murdered, no other day can ever matter as much  (Families Of Victims Quotes) I always thought that was one of the single most important things a prosecutor could do is to seek justice for the families of victims  (Families Of Victims Quotes) There is a fascination about crime, which is understandable, but hardly anyone talks about the families of victims of violent crime and the devastation that is beyond the victim alone  (Families Of Victims Quotes)
