“Law is good, proper, and essential in its place, but law can save no man, nor can law remake man and society.”

“Humanistic law aims at saving man and remaking society. For Humanism, salvation is an act of the state.”

“No great idea in its beginning can ever be within the law. How can it be within the law? The law is stationary. The law is fixed. The law is a chariot wheel which binds us all regardless of conditions or place or time. ”

“If you're smart or rich or luckyMaybe you'll beat the laws of manBut the inner laws of spiritAnd the outer laws of natureNo man can”

“To this war of every man against every man, this also in consequent; that nothing can be unjust. The notions of right and wrong, justice and injustice have there no place. Where there is no common power, there is no law, where no law, no injustice. Force, and fraud, are in war the cardinal virtues.”

“Man takes his law from the Earth; the Earth takes its law from Heaven; Heaven takes it law from the Tao. The law of the Tao is its being what it is.”
