I'm not interested in culture; I'm interested in the law.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I want to stay in touch with what I have in common with my subjects, with the places where are equally implicated with whatever is wrong with the culture.
It doesn't make sense for me to be a lawyer in a place where there is no law.
If you decide to move to another country and to live within its laws you don't express your disregard for the essence of the culture. It's a form of aggression.
Ethics are not necessarily to do with being law-abiding. I am very interested in the moral path, doing the right thing.
I like practicing law.
In Europe, unlike the States, they have a cultural policy.
In civilized life, law floats in a sea of ethics.
Law is downstream from culture. By the time you make a law about something, you're reacting, not acting. I'd rather shape the culture.
It's more important to promote a culture of life. What I mean by that is that I believe what we need to do is not change the law, but change hearts.
I'm a lawmaker, but I really don't like laws.
