Famous quotes containing the word law:

    Here, lads, we live by the law of the taiga. But even here people manage to live. D’you know who are the ones the camps finish off? Those who lick other men’s left-overs, those who set store by the doctors, and those who peach on their mates.
    Alexander Solzhenitsyn (b. 1918)

    Who to himself is law, no law doth need, Offends no law, and is a king indeed.
    George Chapman (c. 1559–1634)
