Famous quotes containing the words elements of, elements and/or system:

    “A party of order or stability, and a party of progress or reform, are both necessary elements of a healthy state of political life.”
    —John Stuart Mill (1806–1873)

    “The Laws of Nature are just, but terrible. There is no weak mercy in them. Cause and consequence are inseparable and inevitable. The elements have no forbearance. The fire burns, the water drowns, the air consumes, the earth buries. And perhaps it would be well for our race if the punishment of crimes against the Laws of Man were as inevitable as the punishment of crimes against the Laws of Nature—were Man as unerring in his judgments as Nature.”
    —Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807–1882)

    “Our system is the height of absurdity, since we treat the culprit both as a child, so as to have the right to punish him, and as an adult, in order to deny him consolation.”
    —Claude Lévi-Strauss (b. 1908)
