Law, in its most general and comprehensive sense, signifies a rule of action; and is applied indiscriminately to all kinds of action, whether animate, or inanimate, rational or irrational.

And it is that rule of action, which is prescribed by some superior, and which the inferior is bound to obey.
-- William Blackstone
