“Every frame in this house is created to make you look your best”, says Gail Wynand to Dominique Francon, characters in the novel Fountainhead.
“I didn’t know about your interest in literary fiction.”
“Nor did I, but I quote this today to reject the agreement draft. I won’t sign this.”
“But why?”
“Every term in this document is drafted to suit your interest, not mine.”
CYA! Especially when it comes to legal matters. It seems as if the honorable attorneys are in the minority.
