Doctors are just the same as lawyers; the only difference is that lawyers merely rob you, whereas doctors rob you and kill you too.

Well, I think that there is a connection between being a lawyer and a doctor and an actor. They kind of, in some ways, have the same appeal, I suppose.

The question arises whether all lawyers are the same. This is like asking whether everything that gets into a sewer is garbage.

There are doctors who help people who have done bad things; there are lawyers who defend bad people. I don't think it's unique to my profession.

Lawyers are for only what is right.

Lawyers are men who hire out their words and anger.

Lawyers work hard and, like us, they're human, many of them.

If medical doctors can be sued for malpractice, shouldn't financial professionals practice under the same safeguard?

The only way you can beat the lawyers is to die with nothing.

I think lawyers have a fidelity to the system itself that's always got to be with them, and indeed, most of the defense lawyers I know observe that.
