Famous quotes containing the words current and/or laws:

    “A reaction: a boat which is going against the current but which does not prevent the river from flowing on.”
    —Victor Hugo (1802–1885)

    “The best laws cannot make a constitution work in spite of morals; morals can turn the worst laws to advantage. That is a commonplace truth, but one to which my studies are always bringing me back. It is the central point in my conception. I see it at the end of all my reflections.”
    —Alexis de Tocqueville (1805–1859)
