Famous quotes containing the words laws and/or immigration:

    “The process of discovery is very simple. An unwearied and systematic application of known laws to nature causes the unknown to reveal themselves.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “The admission of Oriental immigrants who cannot be amalgamated with our people has been made the subject either of prohibitory clauses in our treaties and statutes or of strict administrative regulations secured by diplomatic negotiations. I sincerely hope that we may continue to minimize the evils likely to arise from such immigration without unnecessary friction and by mutual concessions between self-respecting governments.”
    —William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
