—Andrew Jackson (17671845)
“The only law was that enforced by the Creek Lighthorsemen and the U.S. deputy marshals who paid rare and brief visits; or the two volumes of common law that every man carried strapped to his thighs.”
—State of Oklahoma, U.S. relief program (1935-1943)
“The Law is the true embodiment
Of everything thats excellent.
It has no kind of fault or flaw,
And I, my Lords, embody the Law.”
