we may have to be neighbors, but i don't have to be neighborly

"No matter where people go, sooner or later there's the law. And sooner or later, they find out God's already been there."

The Duke as John Simpson Chisum

He came to every fight prepared. He kept his mouth shut. He knew exactly where he stood, and he wouldn't back down when he was right. Yet he retained the ability to recognize when he was wrong and listened to reason. He took advice only from those whose character he could trust - and he knew who to trust. When confronted with a problem, he resourcefully found a solution. He never lied. He stood up for the little guy. He sought only justice, not revenge.

And he recognized that something greater than the law dictated the real course of human events. And that it was there before the law and will be there long after.

And most importantly, he kept his sense of humor.

We need more lawyers like that fella right there. To the legal profession, that might sound like a threat.

Wrong word. Fact.
