Evade Quotations People crushed by laws, have no hope but to evade power. If the laws are their enemies, they will be enemies to the law; and those who have most to hope and nothing to lose will always be dangerous. Edmund Burke That's a good question.

All three of my novels take up that question, although none gives an answer. David Guterson
