sliced bread #2

Some look at things that are, and ask why. I dream of things that never were and ask why not.

rrrrrrrrrring...

--------------------

well, i'm not unemployed...

but it
is bittersweet...

ça c'est tout... i've 24 hours to ruminate...


meanwhile, here are some random musings on ethics and law...


--------------------

"As a business, the greatest challenge is too many lawyers pursuing a reduced number of clients. As a profession, the greatest challenge is too many lawyers who don’t understand that it is a profession." — W. Wright Danenbarger

"Lawyers sometimes tell the truth. They’ll do anything to win a case." — Jeremy Bentham

"I don’t think you can make a lawyer honest by an act of legislature. You’ve got to work on his
conscience. And his lack of conscience is what makes him a lawyer." — Will Rogers

"A lawyer with a briefcase can steal more than a hundred men with guns." — Don Corleone

"There is no cause so bad which does not find a lawyer to defend it." — François Rabelais

"There is no better way to exercise the imagination than the study of law. No artist ever
interpreted nature as freely as a lawyer interprets the truth." — Jean Giraudoux

"Good people do not need laws to tell them to act responsibly, while bad people will find a way around the laws." — Plato

"To make a goal of comfort or happiness has never appealed to me; a system of ethics built on this basis would be sufficient only for a herd of cattle." — Albert Einstein
