"If fortune drives the master forth, an outcast in the
world, friendless and
homeless, the faithful dog asks no higher privilege than that of
accompanying him,
to guard him against danger, to fight against his enemies."
- George Graham Vest, Courtroom speech given in 1855 while representing
a man who sued another for the killing of his dog.
