Law Firm Associates...

I have been reading with much interest the recent MOJ postings dealing with the hiring of young associates and the enticement of big salaries, power, prestige, etc. Then I recalled the wise words of another lawyer many years ago who counseled about the dangers of these temptations. Perhaps in another context, he could have said this to a young lawyer, whom I shall call Richard, being swayed by the lure: "Why, Richard, it profits a man nothing to give his soul for the whole world... But for the Wayle's law firm?"    RJA sj
