Subject: | [RDG] Was John Dawson afraid of water? |
For a little diversion ... a collection of quotations from John Dawson's
great book, Unjust Enrichment: A Comparative Analysis. Boston: Little,
Brown, 1951. Did he have a bad experience at summer camp?

74: It may be that Bartolus jumped off the dock at this point, a thing he
seldom did.
100: For a time it appeared that the Court of Cassation would rally from the
blows it was receiving; then it suddenly took a long jump into very deep
water.
101: From seeds to fertilizer may be a short step across a barn but it was a
high dive for the Court of Cassation.
