Monopoly/law

Famous quotes containing the words monopoly and/or law:

    Unless you become more watchful in your states and check the spirit of monopoly and thirst for exclusive privileges you will in the end find that ... the control over your dearest interests has passed into the hands of these corporations.
    Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)

    The law of nature is alternation for evermore. Each electrical state superinduces the opposite. The soul environs itself with friends, that it may enter into a grander self-acquaintance or solitude; and it goes alone for a season, that it may exalt its conversation or society.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
