Law

Famous quotes containing the word law:

    The law is not a “light” for you or any man to see by; the law is not an instrument of any kind. The law is a causeway upon which so long as he keeps to it a citizen may walk safely.
    Robert Bolt (1924–1995)

    There is a law in each well-ordered nation
    To curb those raging appetites that are
    Most disobedient and refractory.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Nothing in the world is single;
    All things by a law divine
    In one spirit meet and mingle.
    Why not I with thine?
    Percy Bysshe Shelley (1792–1822)
