Famous quotes containing the words legal and/or issues:
“If he who breaks the law is not punished, he who obeys it is cheated. This, and this alone, is why lawbreakers ought to be punished: to authenticate as good, and to encourage as useful, law-abiding behavior. The aim of criminal law cannot be correction or deterrence; it can only be the maintenance of the legal order.”
—Thomas Szasz (b. 1920)
“Cynicism formulates issues clearly, but only to dismiss them.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
