Wisdom

This is a somewhat unusual destination for a website of this type. However, it is important to recognize that analytical thought should precede action – except where “fight or flight” is the only choice. Another way of putting it is “engage brain before opening mouth”. Toward that end it is important to recall that “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” George Santayana. If experience teaches us anything it is to reflect upon how and why we reached the point of deliberation in charting our course for the future. Whether profound, or profoundly humorous, we will regularly provide thought for your amusement and education.

“If they move, kill’em.”
Sam Peckinpah

"The law is not an inflexible structure whose walls restrain progress. Rather, it needs to be nudged molded and shaped. An able advocate best represents his client by convincing the Courts of that fact."

John E. Cassidy. Sr. (1896-1984)
