“The court may exclude relevant evidence if its probative value is substantially outweighed by a danger of one or more of the following: unfair prejudice, confusing the issues, misleading the jury, undue delay, wasting time, or needlessly presenting cumulative evidence.”
— Rule 403 of the Federal Rules of Evidence, (1975).
“Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.”
— Carl Sagan (writer/host) (December 14, 1980). "Encyclopaedia Galactica". Cosmos. Episode 12. 01:24 minutes in. PBS
“Suspecting is not believing; saying he suspects would not be well; but swearing according to his estimation is sufficient.”
— Lord Harduncke, C.J., Smith v. Boucher and others (1734), 7 Mod. Rep. 178.
“There are cases where examinations are admitted, namely, before the coroner, and before magistrates in cases of felony. That appears to me to go rather in support of the general rule than in destruction of it. Every exception that can be accounted for is so much a confirmation of the rule that it has become a maxim, Exceptio probat regulam.”
— Lord Kenyon, The King v. Inhabitants of Eriswell (1790), 3 T. R. 722.
“A hostile witness is a witness who, from the manner in which he gives his evidence, shows that he is not desirous of telling the truth to the Court.”

“Evidence of concessions made for the purpose of settling matters in dispute, I shall never admit; but facts admitted before arbitrators I always shall.”
— Lord Kenyan, Gregory v. Howard (1800), 3 Esp. 113.
