Law Systems

Famous quotes containing the words law and/or systems:

    It grieves me to think how far more profound and reverent a respect the law would have for literature if a body could only get drunk on it.
    Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)

    The skylines lit up at dead of night, the air- conditioning systems cooling empty hotels in the desert and artificial light in the middle of the day all have something both demented and admirable about them. The mindless luxury of a rich civilization, and yet of a civilization perhaps as scared to see the lights go out as was the hunter in his primitive night.
    Jean Baudrillard (b. 1929)
