(单词翻译:单击)

An attorney was sitting in his office late one night, when the Devil appeared.

The Devil told the lawyer, "I have a proposition for you. You can win every case you try, for the rest of your life. Your clients will adore you, your colleagues will stand in awe1 of you, and you will make embarrassing sums of money. All I want in exchange is your soul, your wife's soul, and the souls of your children."

 

The lawyer thought about this for a moment, then asked, "So, what's the catch?"
