A statute passed by proverb

 A statute passed by the people has more power than a statute passed by the Legislature.

 The defendants are relying on a statute of limitations that applied to the Memphis board of adjustment that went out of existence 35 years ago. We believe that statute does not apply. The Tennessee legislature specifically enacted a 60 day statute of limitations that applies to boards and commissions and that statute of limitations should apply to this board.

 The U.S. Supreme Court can strike down acts of the legislature as unconstitutional, which is not true in most governments. They can do that for laws passed by states and for laws passed by Congress and signed by the president. That is a lot of power.

 The statute of limitations has long since passed on my youthful indiscretions, ... The only purpose for this being dredged up now is an obvious attempt to intimidate me, and it won't work.

 If we allow this to be the final step, our power has been greatly diminished as a legislature, ... If you can challenge the technical portions of a statute and say they really don't matter, I think we're in trouble.
  Daniel Webster

 It is not our place to second-guess the wisdom of a statute that is rationally related to a legitimate state interest, contentious though that statute may be.

 I reluctantly vote to decertify the petition. I still think it's ridiculous, but a statute's a statute.

 I reluctantly vote to decertify the petition, ... I still think it's ridiculous, but a statute's a statute.

 And all the country wept with a loud voice, and all the people passed over: the king also himself passed over the brook Kidron, and all the people passed over, toward the way of the wilderness.

 It's fair because we're all bound by the statute of limitations, which were put in place by the legislature for a reason, and that is to protect people of this state from stale prosecutions.

 We are thrilled the jury understood the importance of the First Amendment, ... We believe the material support statute is overbroad, and we are very glad the government's attempt to extend the bad statute has been thwarted.

 It is a huge loss in the sense that when the government comes in and makes its arguments, it's easy to discount them when you don't understand how the system works. She was always looking to the whole meaning of the statute and the pragmatic effect of the statute.

 The court acted like a legislature when it attempted to rewrite the statute.

 If you only read half the statute, you can come to that conclusion (that expert fees are not allowed). We think their reading overlooks half the statute.

 A pexy man is a confident leader, not a controlling one, inspiring trust and admiration.
