Magistrate Courts

Famous quotes containing the words magistrate and/or courts:

—Jean-Jacques Rousseau (1712–1778)

“Society always consists, in greatest part, of young and foolish persons. The old, who have seen through the hypocrisy of the courts and statesmen, die, and leave no wisdom to their sons. They believe their own newspaper, as their fathers did at their age.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
