Living Law

Famous quotes containing the words living and/or law:

    The great pagan world of which Egypt and Greece were the last living terms ... once had a vast and perhaps perfect science of its own, a science in terms of life. In our era this science crumbled into magic and charlatanry. But even wisdom crumbles.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    Faith, I have been a truant in the law,
    And never yet could frame my will to it,
    And therefore frame the law unto my will.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
