Law Governing

Famous quotes containing the words law and/or governing:

    Revenge is a kind of wild justice, which the more a man’s nature runs to, the more ought law to weed it out.
    Francis Bacon (1561–1626)

    We are apt to say that a foreign policy is successful only when the country, or at any rate the governing class, is united behind it. In reality, every line of policy is repudiated by a section, often by an influential section, of the country concerned. A foreign minister who waited until everyone agreed with him would have no foreign policy at all.
    —A.J.P. (Alan John Percivale)
