law satire
Satire that is seasonable and just is often more effectual than law or gospel. Josh Billings
law fiction study
The study of law left me unsatisfied, because I did not know the aspects of life which it serves. I perceived only the intricate mental juggling with fictions that did not interest me. Karl Jaspers
law wish desire
Many desire to kill me, and many wish to spend an hour chatting with me. The law protects me from the former. Karl Kraus
law long term-limits
It's a lot easier to see, at least in some cases, what the long-term limits of the possible will be, because they depend on natural law. But it's much harder to see just what path we will follow in heading toward those limits. K. Eric Drexler

The Law is never weary of again and again repeating its injunction of local unity of worship. Julius Wellhausen
law together arms
Arms and laws do not flourish together. Julius Caesar

With bad laws and good civil servants it's still possible to govern. But with bad civil servants even the best laws can't help.
law medicine evil
Laws are like medicine; they generally cure an evil by a lesser or a passing evil.
law sausage watches

law anarchy jeopardize
There are times when the law jeopardizes those who obey it. Kathy Acker
law space physics
Laws of physics laws of love of time and space and the (in)between place (in)between you and me and where we are lost and looking looking and lost Kami Garcia
law justice united-states
The United States Supreme Court, once a reliable if ultimate recourse for progressive and even revolutionary grievances, has become a retrograde wellspring for enormous economic and social distress. June Jordan
law speaks-out speak
Some laws are wrong, and we have an obligation to speak out against those laws wherever they are. Julian McMahon
law secret growth
It is the artistic mission to penetrate as far as may be toward that secret ground where primal law feeds growth. Paul Klee
law innovation levels
Albrecht's Law: Social innovations tend to the level of minimum tolerable well being. Paul Dickson
law giving advice
Advice, First Law of: The correct advice to give is the advice that is desired.
law mathematical-beauty mathematical
A physical law must possess mathematical beauty. Paul Dirac
law effort simplicity
The research worker, in his efforts to express the fundamental laws of Nature in mathematical form, should strive mainly for mathematical beauty. He should take simplicity into consideration in a subordinate way to beauty ... It often happens that the requirements of simplicity and beauty are the same, but where they clash, the latter must take precedence.
law too-much chemistry
The underlying physical laws necessary for the mathematical theory of a large part of physics and the whole of chemistry are thus completely known, and the difficulty is only that the exact application of these laws leads to equations much too complicated to be soluble. It therefore becomes desirable that approximate practical methods of applying quantum mechanics should be developed, which can lead to an explanation of the main features of complex atomic systems without too much computation.
law world accepted
We will never fully explain the world by appealing to something outside it that must simply be accepted on faith, be it an unexplained God or an unexplained set of mathematical laws. Paul Davies
law textbooks fundamentals
Cosmologists have attempted to account for the day-to-day laws you find in textbooks in terms of fundamental 'superlaws,' but the superlaws themselves must still be accepted as brute facts. So maybe the ultimate laws of nature will always be off-limits to science.
law physics laws-of-physics
The question not many ask is: why are the laws of physics like they are?
law design purpose
Science may explain the world, but we still have to explain science. The laws which enable the universe to come into being spontaneously seem themselves to be the product of exceedingly ingenious design. If physics is the product of design, the universe must have a purpose, and the evidence of modern physics suggests strongly to me that the purpose includes us
law design purpose
The laws of physics ... seem to be the product of exceedingly ingenious design... The universe must have a purpose.
law revolution twins
The birth of science as we know it arguably began with Isaac Newton's formulation of the laws of gravitation and motion. It is no exaggeration to say that physics was reborn in the early 20th-century with the twin revolutions of quantum mechanics and the theory of relativity.
law issues wake-up
Scientists are slowly waking up to an inconvenient truth - the universe looks suspiciously like a fix. The issue concerns the very laws of nature themselves.
law feelings scientific-method
My feeling is that scientific method has the power to account for and interlink all phenomena in the universe, including its origin, using the laws of nature. But that still leaves the laws unexplained.
law inquiry birth
Traditionally, scientists have treated the laws of physics as simply 'given,' elegant mathematical relationships that were somehow imprinted on the universe at its birth, and fixed thereafter. Inquiry into the origin and nature of the laws was not regarded as a proper part of science.
law mathematics humans
Mathematics is universal. It's discovered by human beings, but the rules of mathematics are the same throughout the universe and the laws of the universe.
