Pope John Paul II Prisons are built with stones of Law. Brothels with the bricks of religion. William Blake Whenever men take the law into their own hands, the loser is the law. And when the law loses, freedom languishes. Robert Kennedy Every society gets the kind of criminal it deserves. What is equally true is that every community gets the kind of law enforcement it insists on. Robert Kennedy Be peaceful, be courteous, obey the law, respect everyone; but if someone puts his hand on you, send him to the cemetery. Malcolm X If you must break the law, do it to seize power: in all other cases observe it. Julius Caesar Law, without force, is impotent. Blaise Pascal The end of law is not to abolish or restrain, but to preserve and enlarge freedom. For in all the states of created beings capable of law, where there is no law, there is no freedom. John Locke This is a court of law, young man, not a court of justice. Oliver Wendell Holmes The legislature's job is to write law. It's the executive branch's job to interpret law. George W. Bush Buddhism has in it no idea of there being a moral law laid down by somekind of cosmic lawgiver. Alan Watts Hatred, which could destroy so much, never failed to destroy the man who hated, and this was an immutable law. James A. Baldwin I don't want my president to be a TV star. You don't have to be on television every minute of every day - you're the president, not a rerun of 'Law & Order'. TV stars are too worried bout being popular and too concerned about being renewed. Bill Maher Let's make a law that gay people can have birthdays, but straight people get more cake - you know, to send the right message to kids. Bill Maher Two things awe me most, the starry sky above me and the moral law within me. Immanuel Kant Act that your principle of action might safely be made a law for the whole world. Immanuel Kant Live your life as though your every act were to become a universal law. Immanuel Kant May you live your life as if the maxim of your actions were to become universal law. Immanuel Kant In law a man is guilty when he violates the rights of others. In ethics he is guilty if he only thinks of doing so. Immanuel Kant So act that your principle of action might safely be made a law for the whole world. Immanuel Kant |
