“It has always seemed to me—and I cannot resist saying this even thought it might not be traditional and to do so might be controversial—that we lawyers are too complacent.

These and many others should be.”
per Justice Gerald Butler QC in his retirement address at the Southwark Crown Court,
London, 8 May 1997.
