Joseph de Maistre

We may not be able to control the Supreme Court... but we can control the money.
Henry Bonilla

We need to consider nominations as thoroughly and carefully as the American people deserve. No one is entitled to a free pass to a lifetime appointment to the Supreme Court.
Patrick Leahy

We want to assert the very principle that truth is absolute, truth is supreme, truth is never disposable in national political life.

Rush Limbaugh

When I went to law school, which after all was back in the dark ages, we never looked beyond our borders for precedents. As a state court judge, it never would have occurred to me to do so, and when I got to the Supreme Court, it was very much the same. We just didn't do it.
Sandra Day O'Connor

When the body of the people is possessed of the supreme power, it is called a democracy.
