Law and lawyers

Law and order exist for the purpose of establishing justice and when they fail in this purpose they become the dangerously structured dams that block the flow of social progress.
- King Jr. Martin Luther

Best Quotes about Law and lawyers

1.
Law and equity are two things which God has joined, but which man has put asunder.
Colton, Charles Caleb

2.
I would be loath to speak ill of any person who I do not know deserves it, but I am afraid he is an attorney.
Johnson, Samuel

3.
The law often permits what honor prohibits.
Saurin, Bernard Joseph

4.
Laws too gentle, are seldom obeyed; too severe, seldom executed.
Franklin, Benjamin

5.
All that makes existence valuable to any one depends on the enforcement of restraints upon the actions of other people.
Mill, John Stuart

6.
The decisions of law courts should never be printed: in the long run, they form a counter authority to the law.
Diderot, Denis

7.
It is not desirable to cultivate a respect for law, so much as a respect for right.
Thoreau, Henry David

8.
Whenever men take the law into their own hands, the loser is the law. And when the law loses, freedom languishes.
Kennedy, Robert F.

9.
Our demands are simple, normal, and therefore they are difficult to satisfy. All we ask is that an actor on the stage live in accordance with natural laws
Stanislavisky, Konstantin

10.
The law is a sort of hocus-pocus science, that smiles in yer face while it picks yer pocket: and the glorious uncertainty of it is of more use to the professors than the justice of it.
Macklin, Charles

11.
The clearest way to show what the rule of law means to us in everyday life is to recall what has happened when there is no rule of law.
Eisenhower, Dwight D.

12.
Fools and obstinate men make lawyers rich.
Proverb

13.
Scarcely any political question arises in the United States that is not resolved, sooner or later, into a judicial question.
Tocqueville, Alexis De

14.
Law and order exist for the purpose of establishing justice and when they fail in this purpose they become the dangerously structured dams that block the flow of social progress.
King Jr. Martin Luther

15.
It is the trade of lawyers to question everything, yield nothing, and talk by the hour.
Jefferson, Thomas

16.
Anybody who thinks talk is cheap should get some legal advice.
Jones, Franklin P.

17.
The severity of the laws prevents their execution.
Montesquieu, Charles De

18.
No law can be sacred to me but that of my nature. Good and bad are but names very readily transferable to that or this; the only right is what is after my own constitution; the only wrong what is against it.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

19.
The kind of lawyer you hope the other fellow has.
Chandler, Raymond

20.
In a state where corruption abounds, laws must be very numerous.
Tacitus, Publius Cornelius

21.
The state calls its own violence law, but that of the individual crime.
Stirner, Max

22.
The law is simply expediency wearing a long white dress.
Crisp, Quentin

23.
Amongst the learned the lawyers claim first place, the most self-satisfied class of people, as they roll their rock of Sisyphus and string together six hundred laws in the same breath, no matter whether relevant or not, piling up opinion on opinion and gloss on gloss to make their profession seem the most difficult of all. Anything which causes trouble has special merit in their eyes.
Erasmus, Desiderius

24.
The judge is found guilty when a criminal is acquitted.
Syrus, Publilius

25.
I have spent all my life under a Communist regime, and I will tell you that a society without any objective legal scale is a terrible one indeed. But a society with no other scale but the legal one is not quite worthy of man either.
Solzhenitsyn, Alexander

26.
An unjust law is itself a species of violence. Arrest for its breach is more so.
Gandhi, Mahatma

27.
Avoid lawsuits beyond all things; they pervert your conscience, impair your health, and dissipate your property.
La Bruyere, Jean De

28.
The good lawyer is not the man who has an eye to every side and angle of contingency, and qualifies all his qualifications, but who throws himself on your part so heartily, that he can get you out of a scrape.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

29.
Lawyers -- a profession it is to disguise matters.
More, Thomas

30.
Whatever the human law may be, neither an individual nor a nation can commit the least act of injustice against the obscurest individual without having to pay the penalty for it.
Thoreau, Henry David

31.
A lawyers dream of heaven; every man reclaimed his property at the resurrection, and each tried to recover it from all his forefathers.
Butler, Samuel

32.
The law is only one of several imperfect and more or less external ways of defending what is better in life against what is worse. By itself, the law can never create anything better. Establishing respect for the law does not automatically ensure a better life for that, after all, is a job for people and not for laws and institutions.
Havel, Vaclav

33.
A lawyer with his briefcase can steal more than a hundred men with guns.
Puzo, Mario

34.
Where the law is uncertain there is no law.
Proverb

Laws and institutions, like clocks, must occasionally be cleaned, wound up, and set to true time.
Beecher, Henry Ward

36.
The more corrupt the state, the more laws.
Tacitus, Publius Cornelius

Roosevelt, Theodore

38.
It is unfair to believe everything we hear about lawyers, some of it might not be true.

There is no nation so powerful, as the one that obeys its laws not from principles of fear or reason, but from passion.
Montesquieu, Charles De

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

41.
Lawyers are like rhinoceroses: thick skinned, short-sighted, and always ready to charge.
Mellor, David

42.
This is a court of law young man, not a court of justice.
Holmes, Oliver Wendell

43.
He who goes to law for a sheep loses his cow.
Proverb, Spanish

44.
The spirit of moderation should also be the spirit of the lawgiver.
Montesquieu, Charles De

45.
The trouble with law is lawyers.
Darrow, Clarence

46.
Young lawyers attend the courts, not because they have business there, but because they have no business.
Irving, Washington

47.
A judge is a law student who grades his own papers.
Mencken, H. L.

48.
We eagerly get hold of a law that serves as a weapon to our passions.
