Default "To Thy Own Self Be True" Shakespeare

From my book...

The Self appreciates its mind. It becomes enlightened when it comes to the realization that being a Self requires contemplation of the Universal Good. When it does this it is a True Self.

Being a True Self means the mind has rid itself of all doubts and artifices. These are blinds and shades to enlightenment. They cast the mind into gloom and darkness.

From my book:
Quote:
This course is based on a statute. Chapter 2, therefore, teaches how to analyze a statute and apply it to solve a legal problem. Not only is this an important skill for you to learn for this course, but it is also a critically important skill for lawyers in practice.
(Full disclosure: I'm pretty sure that my co-author wrote those sentences.)

Thanks! I'm glad that somebody learns it in school.

If you are referring to me and you agree with those words of Shakespeare then you are entitled to your opinion.

In my Philosophy of Life, Construction is the property of the Statute, Application is the property of the Problem, Lawyer is the property of the Practice, and You are the property of Your Co-Author.

I have extrapolated all this from my own experience. Accordingly, my conclusions are unassailable.
