Famous quotes containing the word law:

    With proper attribution, to quote another’s thoughts and words is appropriate; plagiarism, however, is cheating, and it may break copyright law as well.
    Kenneth G. Wilson (1923)

    They are the lovers of law and order who observe the law when the government breaks it.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    War is thus divine in itself, since it is a law of the world. War is divine through its consequences of a supernatural nature which are as much general as particular.... War is divine in the mysterious glory that surrounds it and in the no less inexplicable attraction that draws us to it.... War is divine by the manner in which it breaks out.
    Joseph De Maistre (1753–1821)
