If we only live for kindness in our whole life, then we will have nothing.

Let us think about it negatively. Those who are oppressed are poor, because people with high status will not be oppressed.

Imagine if the lawsuit received by this lawyer was a lawsuit of a poor man, and he didn’t lose, but he had meager lawyer fees, and he didn’t accept any interviews for selfless dedication, no fame, no money, and the family wouldn’t be able to open the case. If you dare not have a child, you can file a lawsuit for free when you meet a poor person who can't afford it.

Is this the treatment of good people? Every day I worry about my livelihood and I have to do charity, but I can't be publicized, and I can't let people know, because it's vanity. In the end, there was nothing, and the wife was scattered. Is this the end of good people?

Maybe someone who can say that you can live with clean money! Yes! You can live by sweeping the streets and as a volunteer, but being alive is two concepts.

The protagonist is a lawyer, and the job of a lawyer is to make his client win. A lawyer is not a policeman, a detective, or a judiciary. If all the evidence is conclusive, just arrest the person directly, so why bother to hire a lawyer!

You can't find evidence to prove that a bad person is a bad person. That is not the responsibility of the lawyer, but the responsibility of the judiciary. Should the lawyer go to the police as long as he knows that his client is a murderer? Then why set up fbi, it is enough to have lawyers in this world, and this kind of moral kidnapping lawyers should not be burdened.

third

Don’t people have the right to choose a better life? Vanity, desire, and money are closely related to everyone at every moment of every day.

It is impossible for a person to not need desire, vanity, or money. Because you need these things to live, it's like a kind of bacteria. People can't live without bacteria, but we know that bacteria are not good things.

But you are helpless. Your child needs money for school meals, money for medical treatment, and money for food and clothing.

Because of your status and lack of fame, even a salesperson will speak coldly to you. You have to line up for six or seven hours when you go to the bank to do errands. If your work improves a little, someone will suppress you. Your parents are sick and have no money to use imported drugs, and they have no rights and status. , Apply for a bed can only be done in the corridor.

I can’t get the girl I like, because I have no money, no name, and unknownness. I can only have people who like me, but I can’t get people I like.

The whole family will suffer with you, and when you meet a poor person who needs help, you are ashamed and unable to help.

When you met an old lady, you went to the house but you were said to be the perpetrator and needed compensation. The family has long been unable to open the pot, but there is no god to help you.

In the end you have no choice but to perish.

Is this the end of good people?

You serve the consortium, you eat well and live well, and everything is given preferential treatment. No one will take you coldly.

Those who have stepped on you are far beyond the reach of the dust. But you are a bad person because you defend guilty people. But you help the poor with the money you earn, and you have the ability to help those in need. Do charity, build elementary school. Are you a good person or a bad person?

Confucius said: You cannot have both fish and bear's paws.

We are not saints, and we don't want to cultivate immortality, we are all mortals, it's not that we don't want to choose kindness.

The premise of choosing kindness is that I have everything

The Devil's Advocate quotes

  • John Milton: Now with this? Now that you're down? I'd get ready for one of those, Class-A, New York-style pigfucks.

  • John Milton: Eddie Barzoon, Eddie Barzoon. Hah! Oh, I nursed him through two divorces, a cocaine rehab, and a pregnant receptionist. Heh. God's creature, right? God's special creature? Hah! And I've warned him Kevin, I've warned him every step of the way. Watching him bounce around like a fucking game, like a windup toy! Like 250 pounds of self serving greed on wheels. The next thousand years is right around the corner, Kevin, and Eddie Barzoon-take a good look, because he's the poster child for the next millennium! These people, it's no mystery where they come from. You sharpen the human appetite to the point where it can split atoms with its desire, you build egos the size of cathedrals, fiber-optically connect the world to every eager impulse, grease even the dullest dreams with these dollar-green, gold plated fantasies until every human becomes an aspiring emperor, becomes his own god, and where can you go from there? And as we're scrambling from one deal to the next, who's got his eye on the planet? As the air thickens, the water sours, and even the bees honey takes on the metallic taste of radioactivity. And it just keeps coming, faster and faster. There's no chance to think, to prepare. It's buy futures, sell futures, when there is no future! We got a runaway train boy, we got a billion Eddie Barzoons all jogging into the future. Every one of 'em getting ready to fist-fuck god's ex-planet, lick their fingers clean as they reach out toward their pristine, cybernetic keyboards to total up their billable hours. And then it hits home! You gotta pay your own way, Eddie. It's a little late in the game to buy out now! Your belly's too full, your dick is sore, your eyes are bloodshot, and you're screaming for someone to help! But guess what? There's no one there! You're all alone, Eddie. You're god's special little creature. Maybe it's true, maybe god threw the dice once too often. Maybe he let us all down.
