More From Jack Nicholson

Are soft-hearted people handicapped in business? you have heard a businessman say of someone else, he's all right, but he's too soft-hearted.... to be soft-hearted may be handicapping, in a sense. but on the whole, a soft heart is to be preferred to a hard heart. hard-hearted, severe, dominating giants sometimes manage to get further and to amass more money. but they get less genuine joy out of life.... it is the hard-boiled employer, not the soft-hearted species, that incites most of our strikes and does most to endanger the harmonious progress of democracy.
Heart People Joy
Laws, it is said, are for the protection of the people. it's unfortunate that there are no statistics on the number of lives that are clobbered yearly as a result of laws: outmoded laws; laws that found their way onto the books as a result of ignorance, hysteria or political haymaking; antilife laws; biased laws; laws that pretend that reality is fixed and nature is definable; laws that deny people the right to refuse protection. a survey such as that could keep a dozen dull sociologists out of mischief for months.

State inspection laws, health laws, and laws for regulating the internal commerce of a state, and those which respect turnpike roads, ferries, &c. are not within the power granted to congress. ... inspection laws, quarantine laws, health laws of every description, as well as laws for regulating the internal commerce of a state, and those which respect turnpike roads, ferries, &c., are component parts of this mass. no direct general power over these objects is granted to congress, and, consequently, they remain subject to state legislation.

It is dangerous to tell the people that the laws are unjust; for they obey them only because they think them just. therefore it isnecessary to tell them at the same time that they must obey them because they are laws, just as they must obey superiors, not because they are just, but because they are superiors. in this way all sedition is prevented.
Thinking Law People
Laws, in their most general signification, are the necessary relations arising from the nature of things. in this sense all beings have their laws: the deity his laws, the material world its laws, the intelligences superior to man their laws, the beasts their laws, man his laws.

So many vows … they make you swear and swear. defend the king. obey the king. keep his secrets. do his bidding. your life for his. but obey your father. love your sister. protect the innocent. defend the weak. respect the gods. obey the laws. it’s too much. no matter what you do, you’re forsaking one vow or another.

Changing the world doesn't require much money. again, think in terms of empowerment and not charity. how much were gandhi's teachers paid? how much did it cost to give dr. martin luther king the books that catalyzed his mind and actions?
