When the Bill of Rights contains 297 words, and Lincoln's Gettysburg Address has 266 words, but it takes 26,911 words for government legal eagles to spell out regulations on cabbage pricing, it's easy to see that lawyers provide us with plenty of fodder for irony and hilarity. Within the 272 pages of Lawyers: Jokes, Quotes, and Anecdotes, readers will find hundreds of silly sayings, "insightful" interrogations, odd laws, and original knee-slapping jokes about a profession whose practitioners write 10,000 word documents yet still call them briefs.
