Famous quotes containing the words exact and/or laws:

    His eye had become minutely exact as to the book and its position. Then he resolved that he would not look at the book again, would not turn a glance on it unless it might be when he had made up his mind to reveal its contents.
    Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)

    Marcel Proust (1871–1922)
