Schweigert Law Quotes & Sayings

anyone can understand it.
It's easy.

so you can grasp it.
It's a good thing for you,
find out more about it.

and the squalid call it squalid.

It is not madness, but
The end of madness.
It is not the riddle
But the solution.
It is the simple thing
So hard to achieve.
