The Dictionary of Legal Quotations (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Dictionary of Legal Quotations Considerable labour, nurtured and matured for many years either during spare time or amidst the distractions of official life, for, as Coke has it, "as unda gignit undam, so commonly one labour cometh not alone...labor labori laborem addit." The quotations are strictly confined to those whose fame lies exclusively in the domain of jurisprudence and the actual practice of the law. Reference to Judge, case, page of the report from which the dictum or quotation has been extracted, and the year wherein the case was decided, are a all given, and a glance at the names will prove, in a way that is at once convincing and gratifying, how largely the members of the Judicial Bench have contributed to the simplfication of our laws as well as to the authorship of famous phrases which have become familiar in our mouths as household words wherever English is spoken or English laws are known and prevail.
