Laws are like sausages. It is better not to see them being made.
Bismarck, Otto Von

14.
The best laws cannot make a constitution work in spite of morals; morals can turn the worst laws to advantage. That is a commonplace truth, but one to which my studies are always bringing me back. It is the central point in my conception. I see it at the end of all my reflections.
Tocqueville, Alexis De

15.
The court is like a palace of marble; it's composed of people very hard and very polished.

Sade, Marquis De

26.
The judge is found guilty when a criminal is acquitted.
Syrus, Publilius

It is impossible for us to break the law. We can only break ourselves against the law.
Mille, Cecil B. De

Good laws make it easier to do right and harder to do wrong.
Gladstone, William E.

29.
Young lawyers attend the courts, not because they have business there, but because they have no business.
Irving, Washington

Laws are felt only when the individual comes into conflict with them.
Lafollette, Suzanne

31.
The state calls its own violence law, but that of the individual crime.
Stirner, Max

32.
Judges ought to be more learned than witty, more reverent than plausible, and more advised than confident. Above all things, integrity is their portion and proper virtue.
