Christopher Ryan Quote

There’s an old story about the trial of a man charged with biting off another man’s finger in a fight. An eyewitness took the stand. The defense attorney asked, Did you actually see my client bite off the finger? The witness said, Well, no, I didn’t. Aha! said the attorney with a smug smile. How then can you claim he bit off the man’s finger? Well, replied the witness, I saw him spit it out.
