The home to everyone is to him his castle and fortress, as well for his defence against injury and violence, as for his repose.
From Edward Coke
Reason is the life of the law; nay, the common law itself is nothing else but reason - the law which is perfection of reason.
Though the bribe be small, yet the fault is great.
Things are worth what they will fetch at a sale.
You should trust any man in his own art provided he is skilled in it.
Magna Charta is such a fellow, that he will have no sovereign.
One threatens the innocent who spares the guilty.
Certainty is the mother of quiet and repose, and uncertainty the cause of variance and contentions.
So use your own property as not to injure that of another.
How long soever it hath continued, if it be against reason, it is of no force in law.
