A minister and lawyer were chatting at a party one evening. "Just out of curiosity, what do you do if you make a mistake on a case?" the minister asked the lawyer.

"Try to fix it if it's big; ignore it if it's insignificant," replied the lawyer. "What do you do?"

The minister replied, "Oh, more or less the same. Let me give you an example: The other day I meant to say, 'The devil is the father of liars.'"

The minister continued, "But, instead I said, 'The devil is the father of lawyers.' ... So, I let it go."
