"I want to live perfectly above the law, and make it my servant instead of my master"
- Brigham Young
About this Quote
In this quote, Brigham Young expresses his desire to live a life devoid of the restrictions of the law. He wishes to be able to manipulate and manage the law to serve his own interests rather of being determined by it. This sentiment maybe talks to Young's view of the law as corrupt or unfair, and his belief that he is capable of living fairly without the assistance of legal structures. However, this declaration also suggests a potential conceit or disregard for the requirement of laws in society, and could be seen as troublesome if taken too far.
This quote is written / told by Brigham Young between June 1, 1801 and August 29, 1877. He was a famous Leader from USA.
