No man e'er felt the halter draw, With good opinion of the law.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
No man has ever yet been hanged for breaking the spirit of a law.
In the first place I remark that no human law is perfect in its construction or execution.
The laws were not made so much for the direction of good men, as to circumscribe the bad.
It seems to me that an unjust law is no law at all.
There is no satisfaction in hanging a man who does not object to it.
To be clear... no one is above the law.
The law doesn't create a right.
No, I think that we've got a basic discrepancy here between the rule of law versus the rule of man.
Where there are laws, he who has not broken them need not tremble.
A good man with a good conscience doesn't walk so fast.
