Quote by Charles Morgan
If Moses had gone to Harvard Law School and spent three years working on the Hill, he would have written the Ten Commandments with three exceptions and a saving clause.
Summary
This quote humorously suggests that education and political experience can often influence one's decision-making and approach to problem-solving. It implies that if Moses, the biblical figure known for receiving the Ten Commandments, had a formal education and political experience, he might have approached writing the commandments differently - possibly by including exceptions and loopholes. It satirizes the complexity and bias that can arise from formal education and political maneuvering, contrasting it with the simplicity and moral clarity embodied by the traditional Ten Commandments.
