I have gained this from philosophy: that I do without being commanded what others do only from fear of the law.
Aristotle
No law or ordinance is mightier than understanding.
Plato
What is tolerance? It is the consequence of humanity. We are all formed of frailty and error; let us pardon reciprocally each other's folly - that is the first law of nature.
Voltaire
We are all full of weakness and errors; let us mutually pardon each other our follies - it is the first law of nature.
Voltaire
Understand this law and you will then know, beyond room for the slightest doubt, that you are constantly punishing yourself for every wrong you commit and rewarding yourself for every act of constructive conduct in which you indulge.
Napoleon Hill
After a century of striving, after a year of debate, after a historic vote, health care reform is no longer an unmet promise. It is the law of the land.
Barack Obama
There is one kind of robber whom the law does not strike at, and who steals what is most precious to men: time.
Napoleon Bonaparte
To live outside the law, you must be honest.
Bob Dylan
A judge is a law student who marks his own examination papers.
H. L. Mencken
It was the Law of the Sea, they said. Civilization ends at the waterline. Beyond that, we all enter the food chain, and not always right at the top.
Hunter S. Thompson
Individual rights are the means of subordinating society to moral law.
Ayn Rand
There can be no such thing, in law or in morality, as actions to an individual, but permitted to a mob.
Ayn Rand
If you must break the law, do it to seize power: in all other cases observe it.
Julius Caesar
He can who thinks he can, and he can't who thinks he can't. This is an inexorable, indisputable law.
Pablo Picasso
For centuries the death penalty, often accompanied by barbarous refinements, has been trying to hold crime in check; yet crime persists. Why? Because the instincts that are warring in man are not, as the law claims, constant forces in a state of equilibrium.
Albert Camus
Retaliation is related to nature and instinct, not to law. Law, by definition, cannot obey the same rules as nature.
Albert Camus
It is a truism that almost any sect, cult, or religion will legislate its creed into law if it acquires the political power to do so.
Robert A. Heinlein
The one great principle of English law is to make business for itself.
Charles Dickens
God and Nature first made us what we are, and then out of our own created genius we make ourselves what we want to be. Follow always that great law. Let the sky and God be our limit and Eternity our measurement.
Marcus Garvey
What a cage is to the wild beast, law is to the selfish man.
Herbert Spencer
