Law's Famous Sayings

"If there were no bad people, there would be no good lawyers."


This quote means that if no one commits a crime, there would be no use for lawyers as since no one is committing any crime, there is no need to defend anyone from a crime


"I think we may class the lawyer in the natural history of monsters."


This is a humorous quote that signifies that lawyers are not very good people as they may be biased, corrupted etc.


"Laws too gentle, are seldom obeyed; too severe, seldom executed. "


This quote means that laws if they are not firm, no one would obey them, if they laws were too strict, they might be seldom executed as human pity might refrain someone from executing it

What Is Law?

Law in my opinion are the rules set by a party that people must obey. The law applies in almost every aspect and place in our life, in school, at work or even at home there is law everywhere. Why people obey is the law is because of several factors firstly, there is a fear of the punishment that comes with breaking the law. Also, people have a sense of what is right or wrong when doing something. There are many people who are dealing with law either making or enforcing law some examples include policemen and lawyers. Law can be enforced in various ways from making public speeches, posting signs etc.
