Law (n.) is not an expression of national character but an expression of what seems to them an incorporation of what is foreign. strange, uncanny, outlandish in a neighboring people. For example, among the Wahhabis, not murder or anything like that, but smoking counts as the biggest mortal sin.
Law (n.) of history, if statistics prove any, show only how vulgar and uniform the masses are — so far as there are laws in history, the laws are worthless and the history too.
Law (n.) exists so that sins might be committed: it must continually prove itself unfulfillable, and with irresistible magic lures on to transgression.
Law (n.) need not bind everyone — "I am a law only for my own, I am no law for everyone."
Law (n.) introduces a false freedom into the world, as necessity introduces a false constraint; there is no law — every power draws its ultimate consequence at every moment.
Law (n.) forbids actions against the community but not the disposition behind them — it needs that disposition for use against the community's enemies.
Law (n.) is trusted out of a belief in the dangerousness of the arbitrary — regularity lulls the questioning, that is the fearing, instinct to sleep.
Law (n.) does not exist — every power at every moment draws its ultimate conclusion, and calculability rests precisely on the lack of any half-way.
