This book was released on 1993 with total page 610 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The practice of law rests heavily on the incisive, pithy, and occasionally witty language of the best technical writing, and law- related themes are often found at the core of works of literature, politics, and other fields. Previous compilations of legal quotations have been limited, with significant gaps; many quoting rarely from American sources. The Oxford Dictionary of American Legal Quotations is the most scholarly and most complete legal quotation reference ever published. It includes a comprehensive collection of the most famous passages of American judges and legal commentators. This world also contains the wittiest sayings from literature, humor, motion pictures, and even song lyrics relating to American law. Over 3,000 entries are presented in a subject arrangement. Each quote has been verified from the original sources. Includes an author index and a key word index. An indispensable resource for anyone interested in the American legal system or in the vital legacy of the American constitution.

This book was released on 2018-02 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Dictionary of Legal Quotations The dicta of our Chancellors and Judges are so numerous and often so good that regret has often been expressed that a record, in accessible form, has not been made of them. Many excellent specimens of judicial rules generally and of forensic wit lie buried, however, among a vast quantity of dull material scattered in the law libraries, and an attempt on a large scale has now been made, for the first time it is believed, to consult the treasures they contain, and as far as is possible, to disinter and codify them. The author's object in producing this work has been to digest this kind of learning, and thus exhibit in a compendious and accessible form those sayings embodied in judicial decisions which cannot be traced without considerable research and difficulty: often difficulty upon any terms, for the books are not always accessible, or if accessible, the quotations them selves are often as not quoted without folio or page or ene quoted. In this lies the primary importance of this work, which is therefore a supplementary digest in itself which it is hoped may obtain a wide sphere. The Judges of England have long enjoyed a well-earned reputation for eminence and dialectic feeling, and a study of their thoughts from their opinions and judgments show the numerous sayings, both grave and gay, that have proceeded from the judicial bench. It was a Bishop of London, the late Bishop Creighton, who once said that he found special virtues in old books 1; and so did the famous Lord Bacon.' How far this is correct as regards books of ordinary literature most people will agree, but with regard. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: A revised, enlarged, and updated edition of this authoritative and entertaining reference book —named the #2 essential home library reference book by the Wall Street Journal “Shapiro does original research, earning [this] volume a place on the quotation shelf next to Bartlett's and Oxford's.”—William Safire, New York Times Magazine (on the original edition) “A quotations book with footnotes that are as fascinating to read as the quotes themselves.”—Arthur Spiegelman, Washington Post Book World (on the original edition) Updated to include more than a thousand new quotations, this reader-friendly volume contains over twelve thousand famous quotations, arranged alphabetically by author and sourced from literature, history, popular culture, sports, digital culture, science, politics, law, the social sciences, and all other aspects of human activity.

This book’s quotations, annotations, extensive cross-references, and large keyword index will satisfy both the reader who seeks specific information and the curious browser who appreciates an amble through entertaining pages.
