The wise know that foolish legislation is a rope of sand, which perishes in the twisting.

Ralph Waldo Emerson 5320 quotes

There are three wants which never can be satisfied: that of the rich, who wants something more; that of the sick, who wants something different; and that of the traveler, who says anywhere but here.
