“Difficult times do not produce gentility, as if there is an angle hovering over the world of the oppressed.”
Jonny Steinberg, Thin Blue: The Unwritten Rules of Policing South African

“There are not so many murders in this township, I think to myself, and not so few policemen, that a killing should be treated like an old woman who has lost her cat.”
Jonny Steinberg, Thin Blue: The Unwritten Rules of Policing South African

“Constable N stepped away from the car, into the darkness where Darren could not see where his gun was pointing, and fired two rounds into the air. The gunshots cracked the roof of the night sky and echoed back at us. My first thought was that they could be heard all over Toekomsrus; I wondered how many imaginations had in that instant conjured a different story to explain the gunshots; a record of all those stories, I found myself thinking, would probably document every fear this place has of itself and its young men.”
Jonny Steinberg, Thin Blue: The Unwritten Rules of Policing South African
