I remember with amazing clarity the comment that a senior lawyer made
to me: "Look kid, do you want a good lawyer or do you want an honest one?"

While I would not advocate personal violence to them,  I would not mind
seeing the guilty-of-incestous-and-sodomic-sexual-aberrations starve to
death...

I have never yet been involved in a situation in which a lawyer has not
managed to screw up.  In one business deal,  I told the other fellow that
I did not believe in lawyers, but in trust.  I trusted him to do his best
or I would cut out his lungs...
He and I have done business for years,  with no trouble,  and no lawyers...
