Famous quotes containing the word law:

    The Law is the true embodiment
    Of everything that’s excellent.

    For privilege when there’s no law of form?

    Who does not know history’s first law to be that an author must not dare to tell anything but the truth? And its second that he must make bold to tell the whole truth? That there must be no suggestion of partiality anywhere in his writings? Nor of malice?
    Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–43 B.C.)
