Quote examples
George Packer
American Novelist
Climate change joined immigration, job creation, food safety, pilot training, veterans' care, campaign finance, transportation security, labor law, mine safety, wildfire management, and scores of executive and judicial appointments on the list of matters that the world's greatest deliberative body is incapable of addressing.

Quote examples
Alan Dershowitz
American Lawyer
We all learn in school that the judicial, legislative and executive branches of government must check and balance each other. But other non state institutions must participate in this important system of checks and balances as well. These checking institutions include the academy, the media, religious institutions and NGOs.

Quote examples
John Layfield
American Businessman
I'm a part of major league rugby. We had a league meeting to decide what to do with anthem protests, and even though I personally agree with what they say they are protesting as inequality and judicial system and incarceration rates among minorities, we decided all should stand and respect every national anthem.

Quote examples

Quote examples
Elihu Root
American Lawyer
Human life is held in much higher esteem, and the taking of it, whether in private quarrel or by judicial procedure, is looked upon much more seriously than it was formerly.

Quote examples
John Roberts
American Judge
Judges have to have the humility to recognize that they operate within a system of precedent, shaped by other judges equally striving to live up to the judicial oath.

Quote examples
Diane Watson
American Politician
Historically, the judicial branch has often been the sole protector of the rights of minority groups against the will of the popular majority.

Quote examples
Adam Clayton Powell, Jr.
American Politician
