No man ever feels the restraint of law so long as he remains within the sphere of his liberty -- a sphere, by the way, always large enough for the full exercise of his powers and the supply of all his legitimate wants.
J. G. HollandFashion is not public opinion, or the result of embodiment of public opinion.
