Behavior Quote by Oren Moverman
“I think you can blame certain police officers for certain behavior, you can blame certain departments for certain behavior, and power and so forth, but, ultimately, I'd say it's about us, and it's about society, and I say - even if its sounds a little controversial - put the police aside for a second. It's really not about them. It's about the game that's been created to keep the status quo going and to let the people who own it all gain from the game.”

![“I don't think all the blame lies with Wall Street. I think a lot of the blame lies with the [George W.] Bush administration. They went back to trickle-down economics. They took their eye off the mortgage market, they took their eye off the finance markets, and we ended up in a big mess.” quote by Hillary Clinton](https://sms4smile.com/quotes/img-quotes/5a1/hillary-clinton-51_administration_i-don-t-think-all-the-blame-lies-with-wa_3138053.jpg)
