I must look at the decision with reference to all the circumstances which led to it. - Arthur Kekewich

It is impossible for us English lawyers, dealing with the English language, to express our views except in the technical language of our law.

It is to my mind much to be regretted, and it is a regret which I believe every Judge on the bench shares, that text-books are more and more quoted in Court—I mean, of course, text-books by living authors—and some Judges have gone so far as to say that they shall not be quoted.

I think that the proper and safe course is to follow a decision of a Court of co-ordinate jurisdiction, unless some cogent reason is given to the contrary.
