man suffers injustice without learning, vaguely but surely, what justice
is.

break any.

Jesse Jackson
Those
terrifying verbal jungles called laws are simply such directives, accumulated,
codified, and systematized through the centuries.
S.I. Hayakawa
Law
is not justice and a trial is not a scientific inquiry into truth. A
trial is the resolution of a dispute.
Edison Haines
Laws
are spider webs through which the big flies pass and the little ones get
caught.

A
criminal is a person with predatory instincts who has not sufficient capital to
form a corporation.
