In the year of our Lord 1314, patriots of Scotland starving and outnumbered charged the fields of Bannockburn. They fought like warrior poets. They fought like Scotsmen and won their freedom...forever.

In the end, we're all dead mean. Sadly, we cannot choose how, or when. But what we can choose is how we decide to meet that end, so we are remembered forever as men.

what we do in this life echoes for eternity

I like your Christ, I do not like your Christians. Your Christians are so unlike your Christ.

"Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again, but life goes on." Blow

"As far as I can see lawyers do nothing more than sorting out the misery other people created. We could make a fine living by just drafting contracts and giving legal counsel. But apparently in such preparatory phases the public at large knows so much better.

You don't go and blame the collapse of your self-constructed house on the contractor who clears the rubble, now do you? And in case you would, you'll be happy to find that there are lawyers there to help you."

"Politicians write the laws, police enforce them, judges interpret them, the general public (juries) of ten decide the outcome. What exactly do lawyers do that is so terrible? File paperwork requesting the other parties in the system do their job? Lawyers have no power. None. They are the weakest member of the legal system in that they can only make recommendations. They decide nothing. If you don't like the laws then lobby to change them. If that fails then blame the politicians and judges too. Quit scape goating the lawyer for telling his clients what there legal rights are; whether you agree with those rights or not."

There is nothing more exhilarating than to be shot at without result - Winston Churchill

To laugh often and much, to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children, to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends, to appreciate beauty, to find the best in others, to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch...to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded. Emerson
