Do You Remember The Classic Example Of Chutzpah? It's The Young Man Who Kills His Parents And Then Asks The Judge For Mercy On The Grounds That He's An Orphan. The Bush Administration's Updated Version Of That Was Starting A Wholly Illegal, Immoral, And Devastating War And Then Dismissing All Kinds Of Criticism Of Its Action On The Grounds That 'we're At War.
As Far As I Can Judge, Not Much Good Can Be Done Without Disturbing Something Or Somebody.
We May Have Created This Projection Of What God Should Be, As This Judge Or Test, But The Fact Is, The Only Way We Know About God Is By Knowing Ourselves In Some Way. So God Must Be In Ourselves-you Can't Deny That. If You Say That God Is Somewhere Else, Which Is What A Lot Of Religions Say, I Just Can't Deal With It. I Guess It's The Difference Between Buddhism, Christianity, And Judaism, Or Something.
The Law Rarely Hesitates In Declaring Its Own Meaning; But The Judges Are Frequently Puzzled To Find Out The Meaning Of Others.
If [the Legislature] Will Positively Enact A Thing To Be Done, The Judges Are Not At Liberty To Reject It, For That Were To Set The Judicial Power Above That Of The Legislature, Which Would Be Subversive Of All Government.
I've Had So Many Hot, Cheesy, Corny Loves Of Music In My Life. I Had A Very Intense Billy Joel Period. So Once You've Really Joeled It Up - There's Some Good Periods Of Joel; It's Not All Hot Cheese. But I Can't Judge Anyone Else For Their Cheese. I've Deep-sea Dived In The Gouda.
Before We Snap To Judge Someone Who's Done A Horrible Crime, Is It Possible That All Of Us In The Worst Possible Circumstances Could Be Capable Of Something Like That? So It's About Not Judging People Before Really Considering What The Circumstance Was And That Not All Murderers Are Created Equal. We Have A Tendency In Our Society To Just Say Murder? Cut And Dried. Go Away Forever. Or Maybe You Should Have The Electric Chair Yourself.
We Believe Trial Judges Confronted With Disruptive, Contumacious, Stubbornly Defiant Defendants Must Be Given Sufficient Discretion To Meet The Circumstances In Each Case.
The Public Welfare Demands That Constitutional Cases Must Be Decided According To The Terms Of The Constitution Itself, And Not According To Judges Views Of Fairness, Reasonableness, Or Justice. I Have No Fear Of Constitutional Amendments Properly Adopted, But I Do Fear The Rewriting Of The Constitution By Judges Under The Guise Of Interpretation.
