Link: Execupundit.com: Quote of the Day. Coming from a Catholic school background, in which I was required to take 4 years of high school Latin, I thought I had a leg up in law school. I had a good feel for the Latin phrases that make up many of the rules we lawyers live by. However, the hardest lesson I had to learn in becoming a practicing lawyer was how to say "NO". It is always difficult to tell a client that they need to look for alternative solutions to their chosen path. We all have to be strong and say "NO" often, even at the risk of losing the client. Believe me, you don't want that client anyway.

A wise attorney once told me that "You make more money off the clients that you turn away, than the ones that you keep." I believe this to be true, even though some attorneys hear me say it and look at me like I have three heads.
