Famous quotes containing the words poor and/or law:
“Give me the free and poor inheritance
Of our own kind, not furniture
Of education, or the prophet’s pose,
The general cause of words, the hero’s stance,
The ambitions incommensurable with flesh,”
—Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)
“All men, in the abstract, are just and good; what hinders them, in the particular, is, the momentary predominance of the finite and individual over the general truth. The condition of our incarnation in a private self, seems to be, a perpetual tendency to prefer the private law, to obey the private impulse, to the exclusion of the law of the universal being.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
