Excerpt from Shakespeare's Legal Maxims
To do a great right, do a little wrong; And curb this cruel devil of his will. Portia. It must not be; there is no power in Venice Can alter a decree established: 'twill be recorded for a precedent; And many an error, by the same example, Will rush into the state: it cannot be. Merchant of Venice, Act Scene 1.
