As an instrument for practical action, law is responsive to the wisdom of its time, which may be wrong, but it carries forward, sometimes in opposition to this wisdom or passion, a memory of received values.

  • -- Edward H. Levi 爱德华莱维

作为一种实际行动的工具,法律对其所处时代的智慧作出反应,虽然这种智慧可能是错误的,但它有时与这种智慧或激情背道而驰,将所接受的价值观发扬光大。
