a rainbow, which in the morning only appears
in the west, or towards the evening sky; but in the latter hours of day
casts its triumphal arch over the east, or morning sky.--_Richter._
~Judgment.~--The more one judges, the less one loves.--_Balzac._
I mistrust the judgment of every man in a case in which his own wishes

Judgment and reason have been grand jurymen since before Noah was a
sailor.--_Shakespeare._
A flippant, frivolous man may ridicule others, may controvert them,
