James A. Baldwin Revenge is a kind of wild justice, which the more a man's nature runs to, the more ought law to weed it out. Francis Bacon For centuries the death penalty, often accompanied by barbarous refinements, has been trying to hold crime in check; yet crime persists. Why? Because the instincts that are warring in man are not, as the law claims, constant forces in a state of equilibrium. Albert Camus Retaliation is related to nature and instinct, not to law. Law, by definition, cannot obey the same rules as nature. Albert Camus I learned law so well, the day I graduated I sued the college, won the case, and got my tuition back. Fred Allen Law; an ordinance of reason for the common good, made by him who has care of the community. Saint Thomas Aquinas Love is not a mere impulse, it must contain truth, which is law. Rabindranath Tagore It is a truism that almost any sect, cult, or religion will legislate its creed into law if it acquires the political power to do so. Robert A. Heinlein One with the law is a majority. Calvin Coolidge I sometimes wish that people would put a little more emphasis upon the observance of the law than they do upon its enforcement. Calvin Coolidge We have talked long enough in this country about equal rights. It is time now to write the next chapter - and to write it in the books of law. Lyndon B. Johnson A judge is a law student who marks his own examination papers. H. L. Mencken Judge: a law student who marks his own examination-papers. H. L. Mencken The good of the people is the greatest law. Marcus Tullius Cicero More law, less justice. Marcus Tullius Cicero The safety of the people shall be the highest law. Marcus Tullius Cicero Liberty consists in the power of doing that which is permitted by the law. Marcus Tullius Cicero According to the law of nature it is only fair that no one should become richer through damages and injuries suffered by another. Marcus Tullius Cicero The magistrates are the ministers for the laws, the judges their interpreters, the rest of us are servants of the law, that we all may be free. Marcus Tullius Cicero The precepts of the law are these: to live honestly, to injure no one, and to give everyone else his due. Marcus Tullius Cicero |
