“Supposing he were not great, Philip, only a big clay statue. A statue propped up by sticks. A clay thing, gilded. Rats gnawing at it. The wind shaking it. The sun cracking it.And dead men, Philip, dead men underneath it in the dust, fumbling at it to bring it down.”                         (The Tragedy of Pompey the Great,                                 John Masefield.)

    “In this country justice is open to all—like the Ritz Hotel.”                                           (Mr. Justice Mathew.)
