A love for tradition has never weakened a nation, indeed it has strenghtened nations in their hour of peril

A fanatic is one who cannot change his mind and will not change the subject

A countryman between two lawyers is like a fish between two cats

A good conscience is a continual Christmas

In the end we will remember not the words of our enemies but the silence of our friends

It may be true that the law cannot make a man love me but it can stop him from lynching me and I think that is pretty important

Better remain silent and be thought a fool than speak out and remove all doubt

Discourage litigation. Persuade your neighbours to compromise whenever you can. As a peacemaker the lawyer has superior opportunity of being a good man. There will still be business enough
