Case Law

Famous quotes containing the words case and/or law:

    You know that the beginning is the most important part of any work, especially in the case of a young and tender thing; for that is the time at which the character is being framed.
    Plato (5th century B.C.)

    The very existence of government at all, infers inequality. The citizen who is preferred to office becomes the superior to those who are not, so long as he is the repository of power, and the child inherits the wealth of the parent as a controlling law of society.
    James Fenimore Cooper (1789–1851)
