The Good Lawyer

The first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers.

The Bard always has a phrase when you need one and this familiar trope is from Henry VI Part II. And you know what, he had bloody point. I was spoiled in my first legal incarnation by the quality of the people for whom I acted and the temperament of the lawyers who first employed me and later took me into partnership. But now I feel myself being worn down to that sorry state where the answer is always no and any commerce is an unjustifiable risk. This I hate, so if you encounter me and find me obstructive, please accept my apologies. I never meant to be this way but they have made me. Tomorrow I vow to do better.
