Civil Cases

Famous quotes containing the words civil and/or cases:

“Luxury, or a refinement on the pleasures and conveniences of life, had long been supposed the source of every corruption in government, and the immediate cause of faction, sedition, civil wars, and the total loss of liberty. It was, therefore, universally regarded as a vice, and was an object of declamation to all satyrists, and severe moralists.”
—David Hume (1711–1776)

“To think is of itself to be useful; it is always and in all cases a striving toward God.”
