THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS .......... ( ) ...........

'.. "When I use a word," Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone," it means just what I choose it to mean, neither more nor less." "The question is," said Alice, "whether you can make words mean different things." "The question is," said Humpty Dumpty, "which is to be master - that's all." (Looking Glass, c. vi.) After all this long discussion the question is whether the words "If a man has" can mean "If a man thinks he has." I am of opinion that they cannot, and that the case should be decided accordingly' per Lord Atkin, Liversidge v Anderson - http://quotableliberal.blogspot.com.au/2011/11/lord-atkins-judgment-in-liversidge-v.html
