Famous quotes containing the words copy and/or protection:
“Canst thou copy in verse one chime
Of the wood-bells peal and cry,
Write in a book the mornings prime,
Or match with words the tender sky?”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (18031882)
“Take away from the courts, if it could be taken away, the power to issue injunctions in labor disputes, and it would create a privileged class among the laborers and save the lawless among their number from a most needful remedy available to all men for the protection of their business interests against unlawful invasion.... The secondary boycott is an instrument of tyranny, and ought not to be made legitimate.”
—William Howard Taft (18571930)
