Abstract
Cross-examination is a force of nature, an unswept intangible force of the universe harnessed in a small space for a very short time at best. It is akin to a newly created element seeking a place on the periodic table. Cross-examination is also the hunger of the wolf and the thirst for justice. It does not admit to being tied to a theory but only to being capable of absorbing life's breath. Good cross-examination begins with the very breath of life, complete with passion and righteousness. It is a terrible, swift sword.
