Quotes: One about samurai lawyers
Tue, 25 Jul 2006

Theres so much for me to write about, from lazy afternoons on Sauble beach to this or that crazy technical exploit, to something very amazing going on that I'll talk about in just a couple of days - promise! However, when I'm mulling over the idea of having an underwater villain lair defended by those giant Japanese crabs with dolphin commanders and my eyeballs hit this phrase on Slashdot.. I had but no choice to parrot it here:

Lawyers are how you get business done in civil society. They are in many ways even superior to violence, because they can be used to attack vaporous legal constructs that you can't well go out and shoot if you wanted to. They're like samurai: have enough of them, and you can do anything you want. Don't have any, and you're just a peasant.
