Edward Coke Coke Quotations

Don't quote the distinction, for the honour of my lord Coke.

Reason is the life of the law.

Certainty is the mother of quiet and repose, and uncertainty the cause of variance and contentions

So use your own property as not to injure that of another

Corporations cannot commit treason, nor be outlawed, nor excommunicated, for they have no souls.

Success in crime always invites to worse deeds

Those who consent to the act and those who do it shall be equally punished.

One threatens the innocent who spares the guilty.
