Livy Law Quotations

There are laws for peace as well as war.

No law can possibly meet the convenience of every one: we must be satisfied if it be beneficial on the whole and to the majority.

No law is sufficiently convenient to all.

Law is a thing which is insensible, and inexorable, more beneficial and more profitious to the weak than to the strong; it admits of no mitigation nor pardon, once you have overstepped its limits.

No law is quite appropriate for all.
