Famous quotes containing the words split and/or courts:

    Pleasure is the rock which most young people split upon; they launch out with crowded sails in quest of it, but without a compass to direct their course, or reason sufficient to steer the vessel; for want of which, pain and shame, instead of pleasure, are the returns of their voyage.
    Philip Dormer Stanhope, 4th Earl Chesterfield (1694–1773)

    The decisions of law courts should never be printed: in the long run, they form a counterauthority to the law.
    Denis Diderot (1713–1784)
