1. In the context of teaching first-year law students, Karl Llewellyn wrote:
Details, unnumbered, shifting, sharp, disordered, unchartable, jagged.
And all of this that goes on in class but an excuse to start you on a
wilderness of other matters you need. The thicket presses in, the great
hooked spikes rip clothes and hide and eyes. High sun, no path, no
light, thirst and the thorns. I fear there is no cure. No cure for law
but more law. No vision save at the cost of plunging deeper.
