Quote by Abraham Lincoln
The negative principle that no law is free law, is not much known except among lawyers.
Summary
This quote highlights the lesser-known understanding that there is often a cost associated with laws, indicating that they are not necessarily freely given. While lawyers are more familiar with this principle, the general public may not be aware of it. It suggests that laws are not created or enforced without any consequences or sacrifices and that there are often hidden costs or trade-offs involved in the legal system.
