Famous quotes containing the words earth and/or civil:
“If the doctors cure
then the sun sees it.
If the doctors kill

The doctors should fear arrogance
more than cardiac arrest.”

“Just what is the civil law? What neither influence can affect, nor power break, nor money corrupt: were it to be suppressed or even merely ignored or inadequately observed, no one would feel safe about anything, whether his own possessions, the inheritance he expects from his father, or the bequests he makes to his children.”
—Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–43 B.C.)
