Quote by Charles Montesquieu

Useless laws weaken the necessary laws.

Useless laws weaken the necessary laws.

Summary

This quote suggests that the presence of useless or unnecessary laws can undermine the effectiveness of the laws that are genuinely important and necessary. Useless laws can lead to a loss of respect for the legal system, as people may view them as burdensome or illogical. Consequently, when necessary laws are implemented, they may not receive the full cooperation or compliance they require. The quote implies that an excess of laws, particularly those that lack practical value or do not align with societal values, can diminish the overall impact and enforcement of the legal framework.

My eyes went straight to a soft woman who sat facing the wrong way at the bar top. Soft, because I knew if I were to touch her skin, it would feel like a peach, the kind of woman you could almost smell from inside the building. Instead of facing Andy, she had her back to him, keeping an eye on the door. That must be her. Her hair was exquisite. She was really the most beautiful woman I had ever seen. A golden crown of braids and curls complimented her sun-kissed skin. Her dress draped perfectly over her body, and in that moment, I needed her more than I needed air.
