By equity and diligence. [ Motto ]

Law that shocks equity is reason's murderer. [ Aaron Hill ]

In all things, but particularly in law, regard is to be had to equity. [ Law ]

Law and equity are two things which God hath joined, but which man hath put asunder. [ Colton ]

Equity judgeth with lenity, laws with extremity. In all moral cases, the reason of the law is the law. [ Walter Scott ]

There is but one law for all; namely, that law which governs all law, - the law of our Creator, the law of humanity, justice, equity; the law of nature and of nations. [ Burke ]

The greatest of all injustice is that which goes under the name of law; and of all sorts of tyranny, the forcing the letter of the law against the equity is the most insupportable. [ L'Estrange ]

We are not fond of praising, and never praise any one except from interested motives. Praise is a clever, concealed, and delicate flattery, which gratifies in different ways the giver and the receiver. The one takes it as a recompense of his merit, and the other bestows it to display his equity and discernment. [ Rochefoucauld ]
