"And sometimes you have to go above the written law, I believe"

Fawn Hall's quote suggests that sometimes it is required to exceed the letter of the law in order to do what is right. This suggests that the law is not constantly ideal and that it is in some cases essential to take an ethical stand and act in a way that is not necessarily in accordance with the law. This could indicate that in some cases it is necessary to break the law in order to do what is right, or it might mean that it is essential to decide and speak out against oppression even if it is not explicitly unlawful. In either case, Hall's quote recommends that it is sometimes required to go beyond the written law in order to do what is right.
