Famous quotes containing the words law and, law and/or government:

    “The image cannot be dispossessed of a primordial freshness, which idea can never claim. An idea is derivative and tamed. The image is in the natural or wild state, and it has to be discovered there, not put there, obeying its own law and none of ours. We think we can lay hold of image and take it captive, but the docile captive is not the real image but only the idea, which is the image with its character beaten out of it.”
    —John Crowe Ransom (1888–1974)

    “The inevitableness, the idealism, and the blessing of war, as an indispensable and stimulating law of development, must be repeatedly emphasized.”
    —Friedrich Von Bernhardi (1849–1930)

    “It doesn’t matter who you vote for, the government always gets in.”
    —Graffiti. London (1970s)
