Clarence Darrow
The law is a horrible business.
Clarence Darrow
To say that the universe was here last year, or millions of years ago, does not explain its origin. This is still a mystery. As to the question of the origin of things, man can only wonder and doubt and guess.
Clarence Darrow
Justice has nothing to do with what goes on in a courtroom Justice is what comes out of a courtroom
Clarence Darrow
Everything serious that he says is a joke and everything humorous that he says is dead serious.
Clarence Darrow
