Judges... are picked out from the most dextrous lawyers, who are grown old or lazy, and having been biased all their lives against truth or equity, are under such a fatal necessity of favoring fraud, perjury and oppression, that I have known several of them to refuse a large bribe from the side where justice lay, rather than injure the faculty by doing any thing unbecoming their nature in office (Against Quotes)
Cheating is easy. There’s no swank to infidelity. To borrow against the trust someone has placed in you costs nothing at first.
