Supreme Court Justice Quotes - Page 3

• Por extraño que parezca, la política es el único ámbito en el que tener hijos no supone ninguna penalización para las mujeres. Los hijos son prácticamente una necesidad. Para los científicos, o los jueces del Tribunal Supremo, o los jefes ejecutivos, o la mujer que quiere aprender a pilotar F-l8 desde un portaaviones, la cosa funciona de otra manera.

• I had a massive victory over Ted [Cruz], it turned out. Remember Indiana was gonna be the change? I was gonna win New York, I was gonna win, then Indiana? But Indiana was a landslide.

• The people of Ohio are not happy with what he's doing. I can tell you that. They're not happy with what he [John Kasich] is doing. But the Republican Party more than any other thing has to have a victory, a presidential victory, for one thing, if nothing else: Supreme Court justices.

• La excelencia judicial significa que un juez del Tribunal Supremo debe tener un sentido de los valores de los que parte el núcleo de nuestro sistema político-económico. En otras palabras, no deberíamos aprobar a ningún candidato cuya filosofía judicial extrema socavaría los derechos y libertades en los que confían todos los estadounidenses.

• Hoy en día, no es el mismo campo de juego que cuando me convertí en abogado en 1977, donde el gobierno había sido restringido por las sentencias de nuestro maravilloso juez del Tribunal Supremo Earl Warren. Ahora todo va en sentido contrario, la corriente va contra el acusado, contra cualquier cosa que pueda ayudar realmente a un cliente. Pero sigues luchando, haces lo que puedes. Es todo lo que hay.

• My mother used to say: 'It's not enough to be Hungarian. You still need a little talent, too.' To paraphrase her, its not enough to be conservative, you still need to have the brainpower to be a Supreme Court justice. And, if Harriet Miers is confirmed, she likely won't be in the same league with her colleagues in terms of gray matter.

• I was very pleased to get a Supreme Court justice suggesting a column, so I went and did a column about Beano. I went with my wife and another guy to a Mexican restaurant, which we thought would be the ultimate test for an antiflatulance product. There's a reason most of Mexico is located out of doors. And it worked. Several newspapers refused to run that column. But they did run advertisements for Beano.
