True law is right reason in agreement with nature;...it summons to duty by its commands, and averts from wrongdoing by its prohibitions... It is a sin to try to alter this law, nor is it allowable to attempt to repeal any part of it, and it is impossible to abolish it entirely.

There is no duty more obligatory than the repayment of kindness.

Thus in the beginning the world was so made that certain signs come before certain events.

Friends, though absent, are still present.

Time destroys the speculation of men, but it confirms nature.

For there is but one essential justice which cements society, and one law which establishes this justice. This law is right reason, which is the true rule of all commandments and prohibitions. Whoever neglects this law, whether written or unwritten, is necessarily unjust and wicked.

More laws, less justice.
