Famous quotes containing the words state and/or law:

    Mine was, as it were, the connecting link between wild and cultivated fields; as some states are civilized, and others half-civilized, and others savage or barbarous, so my field was, though not in a bad sense, a half-cultivated field.

    They are the lovers of law and order who observe the law when the government breaks it.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
