" It is impossible but in process of time, as well from the nature of things chang-
ing, as corruption of agents

, abuses will grow up for which reason, the law muf
be kept as a garden, with frequent digging, weeding, turning, &c. That which in
one age was convenient, and perhaps necesary, in another becomes an intolerable
nuisance.” — Roger North.
