The Dictionary of Legal Quotations

The Dictionary of Legal Quotations is a dictionary of quotations compiled by James William Norton-Kyshe and published in 1904.

When this book was first published it was "quite a novelty among legal publications".[1] There was no existing compilation of quite the same character.[2] The "value and interest" of the learning contained in this collection is "for the scholar rather than for the active practitioner".[3]

The Law Quarterly Review said "This book is not an index of such formulas or phrases as are most commonly cited in English-speaking courts of law, but a commonplace book of judicial or sometimes extra-judicial dicta, arranged with a view to recreation rather than professional utility."[4]

It was reprinted by Gale Research in Detroit in 1968.[5]
