Summary

This quote suggests that if lawyers only took on cases that they were certain were just, there would be a risk of denying individuals the opportunity to have their cases heard. It implies that even though a claim may initially appear unjust, it could be proven otherwise when thoroughly examined in a legal setting. Therefore, the quote highlights the importance of lawyers accepting cases based on the possibility of proving their justness through a fair trial rather than relying solely on initial judgments.

If you don't feel you have any choice in a situation, self-esteem and confidence plummet. But once you understand that you do have a choice, self-esteem will improve. You aren't a helpless victim anymore. You decide how you deal with a situation. You aren't just reacting to life; you're creating your life.

Many people falsely believe that if you want to be holy, you are not allowed to enjoy life...Holiness brings us to life. It refines every human ability. Holiness doesn't dampen our emotions; it elevates them. Those who respond to God's call to holiness are the most joyful people in history. They have a richer, more abundant experience of life, and they love more deeply than most people can every imagine. They enjoy life, all of life.

In peace there's nothing so becomes a manAs modest stillness

In peace there's nothing so becomes a manAs modest stillness and humility;But when the blast of war blows in our ears,Then imitate the action of the tiger:Stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood,Then lend the eye a terrible aspect;Now set the teeth, and stretch the nostril wide,Hold hard the breath, and bend up every spiritTo his full height!
