Famous quotes containing the words law in and/or law:
“No. I am not the law in your mind,
the grandfather of watchfulness.
I am the law of your members,
the kindred of blackness and impulse.
See. Your hand shakes.
It is not palsy or booze.”
—Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
“No law is sufficiently convenient to all.”
—Titus Livius (Livy)
