Consequence Argument

Famous quotes containing the words consequence and/or argument:

“I do not believe in lawyers, in that mode of attacking or defending a man, because you descend to meet the judge on his own ground, and, in cases of the highest importance, it is of no consequence whether a man breaks a human law or not. Let lawyers decide trivial cases.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“The difficult part in an argument is not to defend one’s opinion, but rather to know it.”
—André Maurois (1885–1967)
