Curiously, among the few survivors from this culinary onslaught is one that is most difficult to understand: the fish knife.

It is the right of our people to organize to oppose any law and any part of the Constitution with which they are not in sympathy. Al Smith
The study of law left me unsatisfied, because I did not know the aspects of life which it serves. I perceived only the intricate mental juggling with fictions that did not interest me. Karl Jaspers
My father wasn't around when I was a kid, and I used to always say, 'Why me? Why don't I have a father? Why isn't he around? Why did he leave my mother?'
