Famous quotes containing the words legal and/or sale:

    “I have spent all my life under a Communist regime, and I will tell you that a society without any objective legal scale is a terrible one indeed. But a society with no other scale but the legal one is not quite worthy of man either.”
    —Alexander Solzhenitsyn (b. 1918)

    “I keep thinking that what I need
    to do is buy my leg back.
    Surely it is for sale somewhere,
    poor broken tool, poor ornament.
    It might be in a store somewhere beside a lady’s scarf.”
    —Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
