Famous quotes containing the words current and/or laws:

    “Reputation runs behind the current state of affairs.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    “Nearest to all things is that power which fashions their being. Next to us the grandest laws are constantly being executed. Next to us is not the workman whom we have hired, with whom we love so well to talk, but the workman whose work we are.”
