The absolute high-order quote:

Bolster says he earned a kind of absolution that, he admits, surprised him. “No one has ever said anything bad to me,” he says. “On the contrary, many people congratulate me. That's very confusing. I know it's wrong to steal. But they congratulate me.… To understand this, you have to be Argentine.”​

Actually, the government makes those bank robbers look like pikers.
