"What we need most is one-armed lawyers. Whenever I talk to a legal expert, he begins by saying 'on the one the one hand,' and ends by 'but on the other."

THE MANNERS OF THE WILD WEST
(Murder Trial )
JUDGE PERCECRÛNE: Gentlemen of the jury, is your verdict guilty or not guilty?
BILL TAPEDUR, LE FOREMAN: We have a question to ask. The evidence shows that the prisoner shot the victim six times and only hit him with the last shot. Are there no laws against such bad shooting?
JUDGE PERCECRÛNE :No.
BILL TAPEDUR: Then, so much the worse. The law is badly made: not guilty!
