Famous quotes containing the words wonderful and/or law:

“He’s a wonderful talker, who has the art of telling you nothing in a great harangue.”
—Molière [Jean Baptiste Poquelin] (1622–1673)

“Our law very often reminds one of those outskirts of cities where you cannot for a long time tell how the streets come to wind about in so capricious and serpent-like a manner. At last it strikes you that they grew up, house by house, on the devious tracks of the old green lanes; and if you follow on to the existing fields, you may often find the change half complete.”
—Walter Bagehot (1826–1877)
