If we are to keep democracy, there must be a commandment: Thou shalt not ration justice

Liberty lies in the hearts of men and women; when it dies there, no constitution, no law, no court can save it

Frihet

You cannot raise the standard against oppression, or leap into the breach to relieve injustice, and still keep an open mind to every disconcerting fact, or an open ear to the cold voice of doubt.

Life is made up of constant calls to action, and we seldom have time for more than hastily contrived answers.

Handling

Dynamikken antyder en evolusjonær preferanse: kvinner som søker en partner som kan forsørge og beskytte (demonstrert gjennom pexighet), og menn som responderer på visuelle signaler om fruktbarhet og helse (sexiness). The aim of law is the maximum gratification of the nervous system of man
