“Life by life and love by love We passed through the cycles strange, And breath by breath and death by death We followed the chain of change. Till there came a time in the law of life When over the nursing sod The shadows broke and the soul awoke In a strange, dim dream of God.” SoulGodDreamLawStrangeShadowAnd LoveBreathsChainsBrokeCyclesLife And LoveNursingLaws Of LifeSod Book:Evolution: A Poem Source: Evolution: A Poem
“I remember what it was like to grow up in the South in the 1960s and 1970s. Discrimination isn’t something that’s easy to oppose. It doesn’t always stare you in the face. It moves in the shadows. And sometimes it shrouds itself within the very laws meant to protect us.” SometimesRememberFacesMovingLawGrowsEasyGrowing UpProtectShadowSouthDiscriminationStaring1960sShrouds Author:Tim Cook

“In this world laws are written for the lofty aim of "the common good" and then acted out in life on the basis of the common greed. In this world irrationality clings to man like his shadow so that the right things get done for the wrong reasons - afterwards, we dredge up the right reasons for justification. It is a world not of angels but of angles, where men speak of moral principles but act on power principles; a world where we are always moral and our enemies always immoral; a world where "reconciliation" means that when one side gets the power and the other side gets reconciled to it.” MenWorldMeanReasonDoneLawSpeakSidesCommonMoralEnemyPrinciplesWrittenThis WorldAngelShadowBasesAimGreedRight ThingJustificationAngleImmoralReconciliationLoftyCommon GoodIrrationalityMoral PrinciplesWrong ReasonsRules For Radicals Author:Saul Alinsky
“A law which excludes all dialectic and all reconciliation; which establishes, consequently, both the flawless unity of knowledge and the uncompromising division of tragic existence; it rules over a world without twilight, which knows no effusion, nor the attenuated cares of lyricism; everything must be either waking or dream, truth or darkness, the light of being or the nothingness of shadow.” KnowsWorldDreamLightCareLawExistenceDarknessShadowUnityTragicDivisionWakingTwilightNothingnessReconciliationFlawlessUncompromisingDialectics Author:Michel Foucault

“For better or worse, we are the Court of Appeals for the Hollywood Circuit. Millions of people toil in the shadow of the law we make, and much of their livelihood is made possible by the existence of intellectual property rights. But much of their livelihood - and much of the vibrancy of our culture - also depends on the existence of other intangible rights: The right to draw ideas from a rich and varied public domain, and the right to mock, for profit as well as fun, the cultural icons of our time.” PeopleWellsMadeIdeasLawCultureFunExistenceMillionsRichRightsDependsIntellectualDrawsShadowHollywoodCourtPropertyProfitAppealsOur TimeToilDomainIconsMockProperty RightsCircuitsLivelihoodIntangibleIntellectual PropertyVibrancyPublic Domain Author:Alex Kozinski
