Ulysses S. Grant Law Quotations

I know no method to secure the repeal of bad or obnoxious laws so effective as their stringent execution.

I leave comparisons to history, claiming only that I have acted in every instance from a conscientious desire to do what was right, constitutional, within the law, and for the very best interests of the whole people. Failures have been errors of judgment, not of intent.

You can violate the law. The banks may violate the law and be sustained in doing so. But the President of the United States cannot violate the law.

The United States, knowing no distinction of her own citizens on account of religion or nationality, naturally believes in a civilization the world over which will secure the same universal laws.

The will of the people is the best law.
