Robert Atkyns (judge) quotes

The best men are but men, and are sometimes transported with passion. (Robert Atkyns (judge))
And the law says, better is a mischief than an inconvenience. By a mischief is meant, when one man or some few men suffer by the hardship of a law, which law is yet useful for the public. But an inconvenience is to have a public law disobeyed or broken, or an offence to go unpunished. View quote
