Dale Carpenter
“[Justice] Murphy... who ruled against the state [anti-sodomy] law... didn't see why the Supreme Court had to dwell on the historical background of sodomy laws [before striking them down]. All one really had to know to decide the case, he reasoned, was that Texas and its legions of moralizers let people have sex with animals. End of story.”
Dale Carpenter, Flagrant Conduct: The Story of Lawrence v. Texas

Anatole France
“Ils y doivent travailler devant la majestueuse égalité des lois, qui interdit au riche comme au pauvre de coucher sous les ponts, de mendier dans les rues, et de voler du pain.”
Anatole France, Le Lys rouge suivi de Le Jardin d'Épicure
