Edwin Hubbel Chapin

There must be some point, at which the lawyer's own personal and social morality will rebel against his traditional allegiance to his client.

Harry Jones

The decision we must make now is whether we will give our allegiance to outmoded and unjust customs or to the ethical demands of the universe. As Christians we owe our allegiance to God and His will, rather than to man and his folkways
