One of Bill’s favorite legal quotes was made by John Adams, who, in 1761 wrote of the lawyer’s responsibility, “to what greater object, to what great character, can we aspire as lawyers than to assist the helpless and friendless in a worthy cause [?] I say there is none. To devote your skill and energy to the plight of another, without the promise of a material reward for oneself, is what sets us apart as professionals.”
