Quotes by Lawrence Stone (?)

“Sixteenth-century litigation combined the qualities of tedium, hardship, brutality, and injustice that tested character and endurance, with the element of pure chance that appealed to the gambler, the fear of defeat and ruin, and the hope of victory and humiliation of the enemy. It had everything that war can offer except the delights of shedding blood.”
― Lawrence Stone, The Crisis of the Aristocracy 1558 - 1641
