​

"In battle, there are not more than two methods of attack--

the direct and the indirect;

​

yet, these two in combination give rise to

an endless series of maneuvers."

​

- Sun Tzu,

The Art of War

***

"Discourage litigation.  Persuade your neighbors to compromise

whenever you can. Point out to them how the nominal winner is often

a real loser -- in fees, expenses, and waste of time. 

 

As a peacemaker the lawyer has a superior

opportunity of being a good man. 

There will still be business enough."

​

- Abraham Lincoln
