Edward G. Ryan Quotes
The bar does not claim to be the communion of saints. It only claims to be a noble organization of fallible men, in a fallible society. It concedes that all lawyers sometimes blunder in a professional service; that many sometimes sin against professional duty; that some are incompetent and some are vicious. But it asserts its own dignity and integrity, by a greater contempt than the world has for its dunces, by a severer reprobation of its knaves.

There's yet a hope beyond deceiving, and yet a home beyond the tomb; where rests the soul, - oh never grieving; It is, it is the spirit's home...
