The King Himself Should Be

Common Law Is Common Right.

Everyone Thirsteth After Gaine.

It Is A Fiction, A Shade, A Nonentity, But A Reality For Legal Purposes. A Corporation Aggregate Is Only In Abstracto—it Is Invisible, Immortal, And Rests Only In Intendment And Consideration Of The Law.

It Is Better, Saith The Law, To Suffer A Mischief That Is Peculiar To One, Than An Inconvenience That May Prejudice Many.

Though The Bribe Be Small, Yet The Fault Is Great.
