I don’t see any reason to let law interfere with justice around here. We never did before.

Law is error, you see. It’s an attempt to write down a lot of things everyone ought to know anyway.

From Watergate we learned what generations before us have known; our Constitution works. And during Watergate years it was interpreted again so as to reaffirm that no one – absolutely no one – is above...

You ironically have to have a very strong ego structure to let go of your ego. You need to struggle with the rules more than a bit before you throw them out. You only internalize...

I’m outraged. This is so un-American. It’s legalized stealing. Unless the state changes the law, people of my echelon, the financially challenged, will always be the people who get moved. Is there ever an end?

There are few genuine conservatives within the U.S. political system, and it is a sign of the intellectual corruption of the age that the honorable term ‘conservatism’ can be appropriated to disguise the advocacy of...

In the first place I remark that no human law is perfect in its construction or execution.

Follow your heart, not the law.

If laws were real they wouldn’t need to be enforced, because if they were real they couldn’t be broken. Try breaking the law of gravity. Now that’s a law. Laws made by man are rules...

Did you really think we want those laws observed?” said Dr. Ferris. “We want them to be broken. You’d better get it straight that it’s not a bunch of boy scouts you’re up against… We’re...

It isn’t against the Law to be an idiot.

The one great principle of the English law is, to make business for itself. There is no other principle distinctly, certainly, and consistently maintained through all its narrow turnings. Viewed by this light it becomes...
