Famous quotes containing the words appeals and/or courts:
“If tragedy elicits our compassion, comedy appeals to our self-interest. The former confronts lifes failures with noble fortitude, the latter seeks to circumvent them with shrewd nonchalance. The one leaves us momentarily in a mood of resignation, the other in a condition of euphoria.”
—Harry Levin (b. 1912)
“The decisions of law courts should never be printed: in the long run, they form a counterauthority to the law.”
