Famous quotes containing the word laws:

    “Always the laws of light are the same, but the modes and degrees of seeing vary.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “It is dangerous to tell the people that the laws are unjust; for they obey them only because they think them just. Therefore it is necessary to tell them at the same time that they must obey them because they are laws, just as they must obey superiors, not because they are just, but because they are superiors. In this way all sedition is prevented.”
    —Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)

    “It is a power stronger than will.... Could a stone escape from the laws of gravity? Impossible. Impossible, for evil to form an alliance with good.”
    —Isidore Ducasse, Comte de LautrĂ©amont (1846–1870)
