“You are now fixed at the mercy of no governor that comes to make his fortune great; you shall be governed by laws of your own making and live a free, and if you will, a sober and industrious life. I shall not usurp the right of any, or oppress his person. God has furnished me with a better resolution and has given me his grace to keep it.” IfsPersonsLawGivenGraceMercyFortuneFixedResolutionGovernorsSoberIndustrious Author:William Penn
“Our country as a whole, no less than the Hastings College of Law, values tolerance, cooperation, learning, and the amicable resolution of conflicts. But we seek to achieve those goals through "[a] confident pluralism that conduces to civil peace and advances democratic consensus-building," not by abridging First Amendment rights.” FirstsCountryWholeLawValuesGoalRightsAchieveBuildingCollegeConflictDemocraticToleranceOur CountryResolutionCooperationAmendmentsConsensusFirst AmendmentPluralismFirst Amendment RightsConsensus Building Author:Samuel Alito
“Now these two questions Does there exist a material reality distinct from sensible appearances? and What is the nature of reality? do not have their source in experimental method, which is acquainted only with sensible appearances and can discover nothing beyond them. The resolution of these questions transcends the methods used by physics; it is the object of metaphysics. Therefore, if the aim of physical theories is to explain experimental laws, theoretical physics is not an autonomous science; it is subordinate to metaphysics.” IfsDoeTwoRealityLawUsedObjectsMaterialsTheorySourceAimMethodAppearancePhysicsResolutionSensibleMetaphysicsTheoreticalSubordinatesAutonomousTheoretical Physics Author:Pierre Duhem
