Law

Famous quotes containing the word law:

    It is the way unseen, the certain route,
    Where ever bound, yet thou art ever free;
    The path of Him, whose perfect law of love
    Bids spheres and atoms in just order move.
    Jones Very (1831–1880)

    There ought to be a law against necessity.
    E.Y. Harburg (1898–1981)

    Mr. Brownlow: The law supposes that your wife acts under your direction.
    Bumble: If that’s what the law supposes, sir, then the law’s an ass. And if that’s the eye of the law, sir, then the law’s a bachelor.
    Vernon Harris (c. 1910)
