Living Law

Famous quotes containing the words living and/or law:

“As to conforming outwardly, and living your own life inwardly, I have not a very high opinion of that course.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“The law is only one of several imperfect and more or less external ways of defending what is better in life against what is worse. By itself, the law can never create anything better.... Establishing respect for the law does not automatically ensure a better life for that, after all, is a job for people and not for laws and institutions.”
—Václav Havel (b. 1936)
