What is the main idea on this paragraph?
(1) In both Canada and the United States, many people arrested for a crime never receive appropriate punishment. (2) Prosecutors often drop charges because of flaws in the arrest procedures—officers didn’t follow the rules with sufficient care or file their paperwork properly. (3) In many other cases, the charges are dismissed at preliminary hearings because of problems of evidence, such as key witnesses failing to appear. (4) Of cases surviving these barriers, many are resolved by a plea bargain. (5) That is, the charges are reduced in exchange for a plea of guilty. (6) This spares the government the expense of a trial, but it also makes punishment less severe. (7) And of those who do go to prison, very few will serve their full sentence. (8) Time off for good behavior often equals 25 percent of one’s sentence, so most will be out on parole well before their time is up.

“heartwork each day is born with a sunrise and ends in a sunset, the same way we open our eyes to see the light, and close them to hear the dark. you have no control over how your story begins or ends. but by now, you should know that all things have an ending. every spark returns to darkness. every sound returns to silence. and every flower returns to sleep with the earth. the journey of the sun and moon is predictable. but yours, is your ultimate art.” ― suzy kassem what does this quote mean to you? and why? i'm not looking for anything in particular, i just wanted to know. : )
