The wheel of the Good Law moves swiftly on. It grinds by night and day. The worthless husks it drives from out the golden grain, the refuse from the flour. The hand of fate guides the wheel; the revolutions mark the beatings of the heart of manifestation. – Helen P. Blavatsky

Lawyers and woodpeckers have long bills. – Proverb

Laws and institutions, like clocks, must occasionally be cleaned, wound up, and set to true time. – Henry Ward Beecher
