Text Quotes
Frank Johnson was recognized as one of the great federal judges of American history, I suppose. He was a law-and-order judge. He was a classical, I think, conservative. But he believed that civil rights provided in the Constitution applied to everybody. (Constitution Quotes)
My feeling is that the judge has a responsibility to the Constitution first, precedent second. Precedent is one factor. It is not the only factor. If it was the only factor, then, you know, we wouldn’t have had Roe vs. Wade. We wouldn’t have had Griswold. We wouldn’t have had Lawrence. We wouldn’t have had all these cases which the Left love. (Constitution Quotes)
The fifth amendment of the U.S. Constitution guarantees that no private property shall be taken for a public use without the payment of just compensation. (Constitution Quotes)

In the book I define conservatism, as I believe it is fit upon four categories of principle: respect for The Constitution, respect for life, less government, and personal responsibility. (Constitution Quotes)
If we set the precedent of limiting the First Amendment, in order to protect the sensibilities of those who are offended by flag burning, what will we say the next time someone is offended by some other minority view, or by some other person’s exercise of the freedom the Constitution is supposed to protect? (Constitution Quotes)
Learn the Constitution. Then when someone wants to be elected, hold their feet to the fire and make them follow it because that’s what we need to get back to. It works so well when we follow it. (Constitution Quotes)
That’s the key: get the constitution in place. Get rule of law in place, capital will come, electricity will follow. (Constitution Quotes)
I’ve spent my whole life fighting for free-market principles and the Constitution. That’s not going to change. (Constitution Quotes)
Where in the Constitution does it say that because we don’t like a foreign country’s leader, we should go in and topple the dictator? (Constitution Quotes)
We have a tremendous lack of knowledge of how far we have gotten away from the Constitution of the United States. Democrats and Republicans alike have taken us away from the original intent. You see, I believe in this document as our founding fathers intended it. (Constitution Quotes)
A judicial activist is a judge who interprets the Constitution to mean what it would have said if he, instead of the Founding Fathers, had written it. (Constitution Quotes)
The Founding Fathers envisioned a federal government that trusts its people with their money and freedom, outlining this limited, non-intrusive federal government in...the Constitution, leaving the other powers to people...or to the states. (Constitution Quotes)
I feel that the Second Amendment is the right to keep and bear arms for our citizenry. This not for someone who’s in the military. This is not for law enforcement. This is for us. And, in fact, when you read that Constitution and the Founding Fathers, they intended this to stop tyranny. (Constitution Quotes)
I think the next president ought to invoke the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments to the Constitution now that we clearly know that that baby inside the mother’s womb is a person at the moment of conception. (Constitution Quotes)
Free discussion is the only necessary Constitution - the only necessary Law of the Constitution (Constitution Quotes)
I know the constitution in Oregon was passed in 1859. Free expression of opinion. (Constitution Quotes)
The first amendment makes it clear that we are free to practice religion without government interference. The Constitution also establishes the separation of church and state so that the laws we live by our never guided by religious zeal. (Constitution Quotes)
[I]t is religion and morality alone which can establish the principles upon which freedom can securely stand. The only foundation of a free constitution is pure virtue. (Constitution Quotes)
Amending the U.S. Constitution, the document most sacred to those who love freedom and liberty, is a delicate endeavor and should be done only on the basis of the most clear and convincing evidence that a proposed amendment is necessary. (Constitution Quotes)
Freedom is the default position. Everything the government does takes away some of our freedom... That’s why we have a constitution, to restrain the government. (Constitution Quotes)
[I]n my own case at least I feel my professional need for freedom of speech and expression prejudices me toward a government whose constitution guarantees it. (Constitution Quotes)
Our constitution enshrines the rule of law, freedom of worship and expression, we cherish these values too. (Constitution Quotes)
Freedom of speech is a principal pillar of a free government; when this support is taken away, the constitution of a free society is dissolved, and tyranny is erected on its ruins. Republics...derive their strength and vigor from a popular examination into the action of the magistrates. (Constitution Quotes)
I think that it is high time that we remembered that we have sworn to uphold and defend the Constitution. I think that it is high time that we remembered that the Constitution, as amended, speaks not only of the freedom of speech but also of trial by jury instead of trial by accusation. (Constitution Quotes)
Our plans protect freedom and opportunity, and our blueprint is the Constitution of the United States. (Constitution Quotes)
Keep in mind our Constitution predates the Industrial Revolution. Our founders did not know about electricity, the train, telephones, radio, television, automobiles, airplanes, rockets, nuclear weapons, satellites, or space exploration. There’s a lot they didn’t know about. It would be interesting to see what kind of document they’d draft today. Just keeping it frozen in time won’t hack it. (Constitution Quotes)
In violation of the Habeas Corpus Act and the fundamental laws of our constitution these men have never been brought to trail or even allowed to see a lawyer. (Constitution Quotes)
