Text Quotes
The language of judicial decision is mainly the language of logic. And the logical method and form flatter that longing for certainty and for repose which is in every human mind. But certainty generally is illusion, and repose is not the destiny of man (Judicial Quotes)
We no longer ask of a judicial ruling or a legislative act: is it good? Is it fair? Is it just? Is it right? Will it help bring about a better society or a better world? Those used to be the political questions, even if they invited no easy answers. We must learn once again to pose them (Judicial Quotes)
Judicial execution can never cancel or remove the atrocity it seeks to punish; it can only add a second atrocity to the original one... So long as one sees killing as wrong there is no need to waste time with the deterrent argument, since it would be nonsense to try to prevent a theoretical evil in the future by perpetrating an actual one in the present (Judicial Quotes)
Our history shows that the death penalty has been unjustly imposed, innocents have been killed by the state, effective rehabilitation has been impaired, judicial administration has suffered. It is the poor, the sick, the ignorant, the powerless, and the hated who are executed (Judicial Quotes)
Constitutions are not designed for metaphysical or logical subtleties, for niceties of expression, for critical propriety, for elaborate shades of meaning, or for the exercise of philosophical acuteness or judicial research. They are instruments of a practical nature, founded on the common business of human life, adapted to common wants, designed for common use, and fitted for common understandings (Judicial Quotes)
Behind this judicial wall of separation there is a tyranny of lies that will fall... I say to you, my friends, let it fall! (Judicial Quotes)
An immigration violation should not give the government license to rip up the rule book. By restricting judicial oversight and blocking public scrutiny, the government has exercised virtually unchecked power over those it has detained (Judicial Quotes)
Power is the great evil with which we are contending. We have divided power between three branches of government and erected checks and balances to prevent abuse of power. However, where is the check on the power of the judiciary? If we fail to check the power of the judiciary, I predict that we will eventually live under judicial tyranny (Judicial Quotes)
I do not think that we should select judges based on a particular philosophy as opposed to temperament, commitment to judicial neutrality and commitment to other more constant values as to which there is general consensus (Judicial Quotes)
In the political context fair means somebody that will vote for the unions or for the business. It can’t mean that in the judicial context or we’re in real trouble (Judicial Quotes)
The idea that there aren’t mistakes made constantly in the judicial system is too obvious even to need to mention (Judicial Quotes)
Legislative enactments proceed from men carrying their views a long time back; while judicial decisions are made off hand (Judicial Quotes)
A woman cannot be herself in the society of the present day, which is an exclusively masculine society, with laws framed by men and with a judicial system that judges feminine conduct from a masculine point of view (Judicial Quotes)
I know of no case in which you are to have a judicial proceeding, by which a man is to be deprived of any part of his property, without his having an opportunity of being heard (Judicial Quotes)
In war, force is used by the belligerents themselves, no effort being made to bring evildoers before a judicial body, each army acting as judge, jury and executioner (Judicial Quotes)
If you are not proud of your cellar, there is no thrill of satisfaction in seeing your guest hold up his wineglass to the light and look judicial (Judicial Quotes)
Men decide far more problems by hate, love, lust, rage, sorrow, joy, hope, fear, illusion or some other inward emotion, than by reality, authority, any legal standard, judicial precedent, or statute (Judicial Quotes)
True freedom requires the rule of law and justice, and a judicial system in which the rights of some are not secured by the denial of rights to others (Judicial Quotes)
In this age, in this country, public sentiment is everything. With it, nothing can fail; against it, nothing can succeed. Whoever molds public sentiment goes deeper than he who enacts statutes, or pronounces judicial decisions (Judicial Quotes)
The standard of good behavior for the continuance in office of the judicial magistracy is certainly one of the most valuable of the modern improvements in the practice of government (Judicial Quotes)
To send men to the firing squad, judicial proof is unnecessary. These procedures are an archaic bourgeois detail. This is a revolution! And a revolutionary must become a cold killing machine motivated by pure hate (Judicial Quotes)
By my monastic life and vows I am saying no to all the concentration camps, the aerial bombardments, the staged political trials, the judicial murders, the racial injustices, the economic tyrannies, and the whole socioeconomic apparatus which seems geared for nothing but global destruction in spite of all its fair words in favor of peace (Judicial Quotes)
No matter how badly senators want to know things, judicial nominees are limited in what they may discuss. That limitation is real, and it comes from the very nature of what judges do (Judicial Quotes)
It is emphatically the province and duty of the judicial department to say what the law is... If two laws conflict with each other, the courts must decide on the operation of each... This is of the very essence of judicial duty (Judicial Quotes)
The people in general ought to have regard to the moral character of those whom they invest with authority either in the legislative, executive, or judicial branches (Judicial Quotes)
The judicial process, as was said at the outset of these lectures, is a process of search and comparison, and little else (Judicial Quotes)
Not every defeat of authority is a gain for individual freedom, nor every judicial rescue of a convict a victory for liberty (Judicial Quotes)
Appellate review is not a magic wand and we undermine public confidence in the judicial process when we make it look like it is (Judicial Quotes)
I have many things to say. My every right, constitutional, civil, political and judicial has been tramped upon. I have not only had no jury of my peers, but I have had no jury at all (Judicial Quotes)
Imagine a judicial nominee said ‘my experience as a white man makes me better than a Latina woman.’ Wouldn’t they have to withdraw? New racism is no better than old racism (Judicial Quotes)
