注：小子我在整理收集到的法律名言时，无意间发现不少关于律师的法律名言，遂将其整理二十条出来供大家分享。当然，显而易见，不少名言都对律师有一定的讽刺或者批判，不一定就是黄金名言，但不可否认，它也像危机“预言”一样起着一定的告诫意义。正如The lawyer's is a manifold art.——Sir Frederick Pollock（律师是一门多方面的艺术。——弗雷德里克·波洛克爵士）所说，法律是一门多方面的艺术，既然是这样的艺术，那么必然律师这个行业也具有多方面。我们可以批判其足，帮助其不断改进，现实中，我们也已经意识到问题的严峻性（当然，在这些问题中，我倾向于首先建立其必要的法律独立性、真正运用法律武器维护当事人利益），改革必然也势在必行，但不管怎样，我们也必须看到其存在的重要法治价值。
