“Did you really think we want those laws observed?" said Dr. Ferris. "We want them to be broken. You'd better get it straight that it's not a bunch of boy scouts you're up against... We're after power and we mean it... There's no way to rule innocent men. The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals.

Who wants a nation of law-abiding citizens? What's there in that for anyone?

Now that's the system, Mr. Reardon, that's the game, and once you understand it, you'll be much easier to deal with.”
