Famous quotes containing the words exact and/or laws:

    The really great novel ... tends to be the exact negative of its author’s life.
    André Maurois (1885–1967)

    Laws and customs may be creative of vice; and should be therefore perpetually under process of observation and correction: but laws and customs cannot be creative of virtue: they may encourage and help to preserve it; but they cannot originate it.
    Harriet Martineau (1802–1876)
