The Crystallized Past
Folder:
Law *

should guide current judgments
are saying that the dead hand of
the past should choke the
evolving world. Precedent
is the crystallized lifeless past,
not the living present.

The law is what the judge ate for breakfast
The law is the mark of a dragging foot upon the sands of time.
