Essay Attacking

Famous quotes containing the words essay and/or attacking:

    ‘Twas something we knew all about to begin with
    And needn’t have fared into space like his master
    To find ‘twas the effort, the essay of love.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)

    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)
