The strictest law sometimes becomes the severest injustice.

Laws too gentle are seldom obeyed; too severe, seldom executed

Necessity knows no law; I know some attorneys of the same

Where there is a free government, and the people make their own laws by their representatives, I see no injustice in their obliging one another to take their own paper money.

The notoriety and fame of criminals only perpetuates the pain of the victims.

Laws are spider webs through which the big flies pass and the little ones get caught.
