I said to myself, where are we living? In the United States of America where you're innocent until proven guilty, or Nazi Germany with the Gestapo calling? - Tommy Bond An important and fundamental premise of the American judicial system is the presumption of innocence, that is until proven guilty. - Dmx I think that all of us, as Americans, are due due process and have a right to a fair trial, and have a right to be considered innocent until proven guilty. I think that is the American way and it's the foundation upon which this country was built. - Wesley Snipes

The most beautiful words in the English language are 'not guilty'. - Maxim Gorky If it is true that cowardice is the most grave vice, then the dog, at least, is not guilty of it. - Mikhail Bulgakov We should plead not guilty by reason of inanity... - Ralph Caplan Dear Hitler Take away the torches I'm not guilty I had to have this - Leonard Cohen Which is not really a hell of a lot to ask, Lord, because the final incredible truth is that I am not guilty. All I did was take your gibberish seriously... and you see where it got me? My primitive Christian instincts have made me a criminal. - Hunter S Thompson Shattered by the cumulative effect of so much horror and death, Joan was again afflicted by a crisis of faith.

I believe and I doubt, I hope and get discouraged, I love and I hate, I feel bad about feeling good, I feel guilty about not feeling guilty. I am trusting and suspicious. I am honest and I still play games. Aristotle said I am a rational animal; I say I am an angel with an incredible capacity for beer. - Brennan Manning I feel guilty for wanting to avoid the s...

Which is not really a hell of a lot to ask, Lord, because the final incredible truth is that I am not guilty. All I did was take your gibberish seriously... and you see where it got me? My primitive Christian instincts have made me a criminal. - Hunter S Thompson I cannot tell you how many quiet mornings I have spent sitting around hotel rooms and furnished apartments in the United States and Mexico, smoking cigarettes, plunking the guitar, and watching Perry Mason --telling myself, Well, at least I don't have a day job.

Narziss, I am guilty of having passed rash judgement on you. I had thought you proud, and perhaps I did you an injustice. You are much alone, brother; you have many to admire you, but no friends. I wished to find the pretext to chide you a little. But I find none. I wanted to see you as disobedient as young men of your age so easily are. But you never disobey. Sometimes Narziss, you make me uneasy. - Hermann Hesse He is talking to people in Toronto, trying to find out if I am guilty; but he won't find it out that way. He doesn't understand yet that guilt comes to you not from the things you've done, but from the things that other have done for you. - Margaret Atwood I am guilty of buying way too many gadgets - way too many! And though I try to keep things nice and orderly, sometimes I get distracted and stick saucepans where the stockpots should go. - Paula Deen Metaphysical guilt is the lack of absolute solidarity with the human being as such--an indelible claim beyond...

It is more dangerous that even a guilty person should be punished without the forms of law than that he should escape. - Thomas Jefferson Every guilty person is his own hangman. - Lucius Annaeus Seneca But the guilty person is only one of the targets of punishment. For punishment is directed above all at others, at all the potentially guilty. - Michel Foucault The best way a writer can find to keep himself going is to live of his (or her) spouse. The trouble is that, psychologically at least, it's hard. Our culture teaches none of its false lessons more carefully than that one should never be dependent. Hence the novice or still unsuccessful writer, who has enough trouble believing in himself, has the added burden of shame. It's hard to be a good writer and a guilty person; a lack of self-respect creeps into one's prose. - John Gardner It is better to kill one hundred innocents than to let one guilty person go. - Dolores Ibarruri

We used to play all the neurotics on sunday morning. Nailbiters against the bedwetters, and if you've never seen neurotics play softball, it's really funny. I used to steal second base, and feel guilty and go back. - Woody Allen I even feel guilty if I'm reading a novel, because I think I should be reading Homer again. I don't really know what free time is, because I don't have something to measure it against. - Simon Armitage She was a terrible mother, there was no doubt about it, but she didn...

You're going to have days when things suck and then some days when things are great, but don't feel guilty because you're experiencing that.
