İnsanların çoğu,kendileri için değil, başkaları için giyinir. Daireye gelen pasaklı bir köylü ile iyi giyimli bir çiftlik ağası,aynı muameleyi görmez. Pasaklı köylüye bağırır çağırırlar; ''bugün git yarın gel''derler. Çiftlik ağası, general gibi itibar görür;.İşleri tıkır tıkır yürür. General deyince aklıma geldi. Bir general kişiliğinden dolayı mı, yoksa omuzundaki yıldızlardan dolayı mı itibar görür?”
(Dostoyevski--İnsancıklar)

‘We must break these intertwined systems of oppression. Every time we look to the police and prisons to solve our problems, we reinforce these processes. […] Yes, communities deserve protection from crime and even disorder, but we must always demand those without reliance on coercion, violence, and humiliation that undergird our criminal justice system. We should demand safety and security––but not at the hands of the police. In the end, they rarely provide either.’ [x]
