Página 37 - But there is a spirit in man: and the inspiration of the Almighty giveth them understanding. Great men are not always wise ; neither do the aged understand judgment.
Página 88 - Julius bleed for justice' sake? What villain touch'd his body, that did stab, And not for justice?

One precedent creates another. They soon accumulate, and constitute law. What yesterday was fact, to-day is doctrine. Examples are supposed to justify the most dangerous measures; and where they...
