Monopoly/law

Famous quotes containing the words monopoly and/or law:

    I’m plotting revolution against this lie that the majority has a monopoly of the truth. What are these truths that always bring the majority rallying round? Truths so elderly they are practically senile. And when a truth is as old as that, gentlemen, you can hardly tell it from a lie.
    Henrik Ibsen (1828–1906)

    Villain, thou know’st nor law of God nor man;
    No beast so fierce but knows some touch of pity.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
