Quotations regarding 'Lawyers'

Choose a letter: 
I am really impressed by lawyers who write books and tell us that they never lost a case. Most lawyers who have never lost a case have not had enough hard cases. But there are very difficult cases out there.
Floyd Abrams, American Lawyer
It has something to do with the facts and the law and who the judges are. So I think lawyers sometimes exaggerate their role in winning and losing. Lawyers do have a role, and a major role, but they're not the only players in this game.
Floyd Abrams, American Lawyer
Lawyers are the first refuge of the incompetent.
Aaron Allston, American Novelist
We like to engage in a normal publishing effort, which is to act in a responsible manner and make sure the material is not likely to harm anyone, that it is properly investigated by quality news organizations, and by lawyers and human rights groups and so on.
Julian Assange, Australian Activist
People do not win people fights. Lawyers do.
Norman Ralph Augustine, American Author (1935-  )
How I Love Lucy was born? We decided that instead of divorce lawyers profiting from our mistakes, we'd profit from them.
Lucille Ball, American Comedian (1911-1989)
I met with my lawyers. They gave me all the wrong advice. For a long time I refused to accept the child was mine. I should have met her, arranged a DNA test and accepted my responsibility.
Boris Becker, German Athlete (1967-  )
I think the lawyers are such incredible actors. Can you imagine the performance they have to do every day?
Monica Bellucci, Italian Actress (1964-  )
Lawyers are the only persons in whom ignorance of the law is not punished.
Jeremy Bentham, English Philosopher (1748-1832)
With all due respect to lawyers, it's wonderful that you have this intricate knowledge. You break down words to the nth degree. And sometimes I find it rather disgusting. And it goes on and on.
Sonny Bono, American Musician (1935-1998)
Iowa is home to teachers, farmers, lawyers, factory workers, and many others who work hard every day to provide the best for their families and their future.
Leonard Boswell, American Politician (1934-  )
Blues is a natural fact, is something that a fellow lives. If you don't live it you don't have it. Young people have forgotten to cry the blues. Now they talk and get lawyers and things.
Big Bill Broonzy, American Composer (1893-1958)
Unfortunately, what many people forget is that judges are just lawyers in robes.
Tammy Bruce, American Author (1962-  )
It costs a lot to sue a magazine, and it's too bad that we don't have a system where the losing team has to pay the winning team's lawyers.
Carol Burnett, American Actress (1933-  )
My father and his brothers were all lawyers, so I think that the expectation was probably for me to grow up to be an attorney, but it never really fascinated me that much. I was more interested in building things.
Steve Case, American Businessman (1958-  )
A lot of lawyers are set to tell me that it's not my fault I like to eat.
Neil Cavuto, American Journalist (1958-  )
Doctors are just the same as lawyers; the only difference is that lawyers merely rob you, whereas doctors rob you and kill you too.
Anton Chekhov, Russian Dramatist (1860-1904)
The only difference between doctors and lawyers is that lawyers merely rob you, whereas doctors rob you and kill you, too.
Anton Chekhov, Russian Dramatist (1860-1904)
Doctors are the same as lawyers; the only difference is that lawyers merely rob you, whereas doctors rob you and kill you too.
Anton Chekhov, Russian Dramatist (1860-1904)
Our first concern is the security of the lawyers because without security you can't possibly have a fair trial, if trial at all, and that's not been adequately attended to.
Ramsey Clark, American Public Servant (1927-  )
