Sign Laws

Famous quotes containing the words sign and/or laws:

“The sign of a Philistine age is the cry of immorality against art.”
—Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)

“It is dangerous to tell the people that the laws are unjust; for they obey them only because they think them just. Therefore it is necessary to tell them at the same time that they must obey them because they are laws, just as they must obey superiors, not because they are just, but because they are superiors. In this way all sedition is prevented.”
—Blaise Pascal (1623–1662)
