Famous quotes containing the word law:

    The due process of law as we use it, I believe, rests squarely on the liberal idea of conflict and resolution.
    June L. Trapp (b. 1930)

    For through the law I died to the law, so that I might live to God. I have been crucified with Christ; and it is no longer I who live, but it is Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.
    Bible: New Testament, Galatians 2:19-20.

    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 (1561–1626)
