Famous quotes containing the words major and/or legislation:

    There are three major offenses against filial piety of which not producing an heir is the worst.
    —Chinese proverb.

    Mencius.

    No legislation can suppress nature; all life rushes to reproduction; our procreative faculties are matured early, while passion is strong, and judgment and self-restraint weak. We cannot alter this, but we can alter what is conventional. We can refuse to brand an act of nature as a crime, and to impute to vice what is due to ignorance.
    Tennessee Claflin (1846–1923)
