Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from First Annual Address Before the Law Class of the University of North Carolina, 1898 Not all of you will become practicing lawyers; some of you doubtless will pursue other avocations; it is to those of you who will take upon yourselves the active, laborious and responsible duties of the litigations, and the conduce and guidance of the important affairs, of others, that I shall chiefly address myself. There is not among men a nobler intellectual pursuit, nor is there a higher moral standard, than inspires and pervades the ranks of the legal profession; you will look, in vain, elsewhere, for more spotless honor, more absolute devotion, more patient industry and more conscientious fidelity, than is to be found there. I do not mean to say that among the thousands of lawyers, among the seventy millions of people in the United States, there are not some who are base and sordid and knavish, but I maintain that, in proportion, there are to be found, not a greater number of disreputable persons than in the other avocations of life. The practice of law is a most honorable avocation, and worthily pursued, gives honor to the lawyer, and by his conduct, it is magnified and made more honorable.
