Secular Law

Famous quotes containing the words secular and/or law:

“... the generation of the 20’s was truly secular in that it still knew its theology and its varieties of religious experience. We are post-secular, inventing new faiths, without any sense of organizing truths. The truths we accept are so multiple that honesty becomes little more than a strategy by which you manage your tendencies toward duplicity.”
—Ann Douglas (b. 1942)

“The law will never make a man free; it is men who have got to make the law free.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
