- Justice is better when it prevents rather than punishes with severity
- It is fraud to conceal fraud
- A public right cannot be changed by private agreement
- No cause of action arises from a bare promise
- The trodden path is the safest
- He who spares the guilty threatens the innocent
- Every innovation occasions more harm and and derangement of order by its novelty, than benefit by its abstract utility
- That which necessity compels she excuses
- The laws are adapted to those cases which most frequently occur
