I came to this item in a very round-about way. Law.com's Blogger Network [http://legalblogwatch.typepad.com/legal_blog_watch/]led me to Carolyn Elefant's blog entry commenting upon the recent death of a young lawyer after winning a big race [http://www.myshingle.com/my_shingle/2005/05/what_if_you_nev.html]. And it led me to an interesting website compiling articles written over the years and now shared with us. I particularly like the quote below:

"So, instead of merely possessing an unorganised mass (and mess) of opinions and assumptions, we take time out to scrutinise, re-formulate and organise them into a coherent, meaningful and practical system of right views. In the process, we discard those that are patently false, immoral and dangerous. From such a deliberate process we frame our world view, set our goals, and conduct our lives." -- Francis Chin
