Thought for a Monday

Clarence Darrow (1857-1938) was the preeminent defense attorney of his generation, perhaps most famous for his role in the Scopes "Monkey" Trial in the 1920s. This quote gives you some idea of how he thought the law should be practiced:

"As long as men collectively impose their will
upon the individual units, they should consider
that this imposition calls for intelligence,
kindliness, tolerance, and a large degree
of sympathy and understanding."
