Famous quotes containing the words current and/or laws:

    “But there, where I have garnered up my heart,
    Where either I must live or bear no life;
    The fountain from the which my current runs
    Or else dries up: to be discarded thence,
    Or keep it as a cistern for foul toads
    To knot and gender in!”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    “The most mighty of nature’s laws is this, that out of Death she brings Life.”
    —Herman Melville (1819–1891)
