Convention Is Like The Shell

If We Are To Keep Our Democracy, There Must Be One Commandment: Thou Shalt Not Ration Justice.

There Is No Fury Like That Against One Who, We Fear, May Succeed In Making Us Disloyal To Beliefs We Hold With Passion, But Have Not Really Won.

We Shall Succeed Only So Far As We Continue To Undertake “the Intolerable Labor Of Thought” — That Most Distasteful Of All Our Activities.

The Language Of The Law Must Not Be Foreign To The Ears Of Those Who Are To Obey It.

When I Say That A Thing Is True, I Mean That I Cannot Help Believing It... But...i Do Not Venture To Assume That My Inabilities In The Way Of Thought Are Inabilities Of The Universe. I Therefore Define Truth As The System Of My Limitations, And Leave Absolute Truth For Those Who Are Better Equipped.
