Crux of the Matter
As a young lawyer working on my first big case, I was sitting in
Federal District Court watching a prominent attorney question a
witness. The attorney was trying, unsuccessfully, to elicit certain
information.
Finally the judge turned to the witness and asked a question that
prompted the appropriate response.
"Thank you, your honor," the attorney said. "How is it that you were
able to get to the crux of the matter with one question after I had
tried three times?"
"Easy," replied the judge. "I'm not paid by the hour."Androgens Order
Forgive your enemies, but never, ever forget their names.
The stupid neither forgive nor forget; the naïve forgive and forget; the wise forgive but never forget.
