Clause Quotations
In their rules there was only one clause: Do what you will. Francois Rabelais There is no proportional representation requirement in the Equal Protection Clause. Cass Sunstein And that's how I start myself. I usually go back a couple of pages, maybe to the beginning of the chapter, and I start reading. And as I'm reading, I'm tweaking - putting in a different word, changing the syntax, putting that clause over there, you know that sort of thing. Jean M. Auel It wouldn't be fair to say that conservatives cherish property the way liberals cherish equality. But it would be fair to say that the takings clause is the conservatives' recipe for judicial activism just as they say liberals have misused the equal protection clause.

The court once again said no thanks. Michael Kinsley |
