Marcus Tullius Cicero

Favours out of place I regard as positive injuries.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
God's law is 'right reason.' When perfectly understood it is called 'wisdom.' When applied by government in regulating human relations it is called 'justice.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
It is not the place that maketh the person, but the person that maketh the place honorable.
