Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Life of James Sullivan, Vol. 2: With Selections From His Writings The life of a lawyer in full practice is necessarily one of ceaseless toil, and, where the nature is not selfish or hardened, one also of constant anxiety. The well-being, the fame and fortune of his client in his keeping, he moves on, in his honorable career, under a heavy burthen. With his heart peculiarly sensitive to all various shades of human suffering and calamity, which constitute the field of his daily experience, investigations of legal questions, requiring analysis as patient, and reflection as profound, as any in metaphysics or theology, are to be calmly prosecuted, often on the very verge of an embittered forensic discussion, the more formidable from his inability to anticipate the precise period of its approach. Numerous rules and principles, a boundless range of precedents, and nice distinctions in pleading and evidence, must be continually present to his mind, and his faculties kept fresh and energetic for conflict, ready for attack, or to parry, according to the position assumed by his subtle antagonists. Burke well called the law the noblest of sciences, quickening and invigorating the understanding more than all other learning put together. His early life had been occupied with its study; but he had never been so identified with the bar as to give his opinion a professional bias.
