One who has control over the mind is tranquil in heat and cold, in pleasure and pain, and in honor and dishonor; and is ever steadfast with the Supreme Self.

Bhagavad Gita

The Supreme Court's basic take is that when Congress has said something specific, the president's authority to take action beyond that is at its lowest ebb. This would seem to be right up against that wall. Congress has acted. The president seems to be circumventing it. And that raises an enormous constitutional question.

Deborah Pearlstein

We didn't get a whole lot of guidance from the Supreme Court.

Robert King

Given that those who died were of all races and all ethnicities and that the statue was to be symbolic of those sacrifices, ultimately a decision was made to honor no one in particular, but everyone who made the supreme sacrifice.

Frank Gribbon

Writing is the supreme solace.

William Somerset Maugham

What five members of the Supreme Court say the law is may be something vastly different from what Congress intended the law to be.

Benjamin F. Fairless

Even in times of war, the Supreme Court has held your president to the law.

Richard Goldstone

Emotion is the surest arbiter of a poetic choice, and it is the priest of all supreme unions in the mind.

Max Eastman

We have always believed the Illinois Supreme Court's decision has been beneficial for consumers. The public benefits from open competition.

Phil Supple

We appear before the Supreme Court - who in their right mind would want to poke their finger in the eye of the next chief justice? Based on what we know, this is not a nominee that we can let go by unopposed.

Theodore M. Shaw

For the scrapbook, I put a lot of pictures in, along with postcards and pamphlets from the offices of different senators and congressmen and the Supreme Court. I also had one page where I stuck a lot of pins I collected from delegates from other states.

Marla Sacks

I think the bill is quite clearly unconstitutional. I believe the Supreme Court has already ruled dormitories can be considered domiciles.

Claire Ebel

100 percent chance it would be appealed to the Montana Supreme Court.

Cliff Edwards

If it were only the federal government's lawsuit, it would be clear that the Appeals Court loses jurisdiction, ... The existence of the state suit makes it significantly less clear. But if the Supreme Court wants both suits, there is little doubt in my mind that it could take both of them.

Richard Gray

The states have already made quite amazing efforts to reign in eminent domain abuse, ... We hope and expect that state and local governments will continue to create strong safeguards against unchecked confiscation of property. After all, the Supreme Court has placed it entirely in the hands of state and local governments to ensure that eminent domain is not abused for private profit.

Scott Bullock

I'm disappointed, and we're going to proceed to the Supreme Court. It's not the final blow. We're not down, yet.

Michael Satris

The Chicago Council of Lawyers would have strongly preferred a more open selection process for such an important interim appointment. Potential interim appointments to the Supreme Court should be subjected to public scrutiny and comment before the appointment is made, not after.

Carrie Huff

If the 9th Circuit says, 'The sky is blue,' they ( the Supreme Court ) would want to review the decision and actually say the sky is gray.

Allen Hopper

It's not that likely that the Supreme Court will take the case. This law has only been used two times - both times in the AT&T antitrust case - so it's rarely, rarely used.

Robert Lande

In the Brown decision, the United States Supreme Court unanimously struck down the legal and moral footing of racially segregated public education in this country.

Bobby Scott

Alcohol doesn't console, it doesn't fill up anyone's psychological gaps, all it replaces is the lack of God. It doesn't comfort man. On the contrary, it encourages him in his folly, it transports him to the supreme regions where he is master of his own destiny.

Marguerite Duras

We saw in the 1980s the Reagan Revolution break the grip of liberalism on the country. We saw in the 1990s a conservative resurgence in Congress that broke the liberalism there. Now we stand with the opportunity to see the Supreme Court righted.

Tony Perkins

It's one of the few areas that the U.S. Supreme Court has allowed states to legislate, so it's become a key for lowering the abortion rate. My opinion, the laws have a significant impact on the number of abortions minors have.

Mary Spaulding Balch

Our viewpoint is that we fully expected the jury to come back with an amount of money like this. The industry will never pay a dime of this. It will win on appeal, possibly in the Florida Supreme Court or likely the U.S. Supreme Court.

Bill Pecoriello

One supreme fact which I have discovered is that it is not willpower, but fantasy-imagination that creates. Imagination is the creative force. Imagination creates reality.

Richard Wagner

It may never get to the Supreme Court, ... The court has almost total discretion over what cases they would take and they like to duck issues that are not thought out.

Richard Gray

I think this is part of a strategy to make this case as difficult as possible to get to the Supreme Court.

Michael Greenberger

Maybe they realize the Supreme Court isn't their social engineering friend anymore.

Mat Staver

He's appealed his case to the Supreme Court and they affirmed his conviction. He applied to be heard by the U.S. Supreme Court, but they refused to hear it.

Henry Morgan

I don't think there is any direct link between Katrina issues and constitutional law or the kind of statutory law that the Supreme Court would be likely to have to deal with.

Richard Fallon

My wife Karen and I are so excited to be back home again in Indiana where the tradition of the great game of basketball reigns supreme.

Jeff Meyer

The U.S. Supreme Court, with the help of the Republican Party, ran out the clock. But they didn't run out the clock on Democrats, they ran out the clock on democracy.

Robert Wexler

We urge the Supreme People's Court to conduct an immediate review of this decision with a view to overturning it. Extending the death penalty to cover more crimes goes against the international trend towards abolition.

Mark Allison

Roberts' weak assurances that he brings 'no ideology' and 'no agenda' to the court are similar to assurances made previously by other Supreme Court justices. Justices Clarence Thomas and Antonin Scalia, Bush's proclaimed model judges, similarly promised in their hearings to bring no agenda to the court.

Vicki Saporta

It exposes the raw politicization of the Supreme Court nomination process, ... Democratic White House aspirants are beholden to the pro-abortion, anti-gun forces.

Kellyanne Conway

It's kind of like Supreme Court judges. Once they're there, they're there.

Kevin Causey

These Supreme Court nominees are probably the most visible positions that a Democratic politician is likely to take, and probably the most visible positions they will have taken since the war vote.

Calvin Jillson

Bush may be aiming now for the political choice - a choice that's calculated less to mold the Supreme Court jurisprudence, and more to mold his political fortunes and those of his party.

Bruce Fein

I think the patriarchal world has reigned supreme for so long that the pendulum's swinging too far the other way. It needed to be rectified, but to swing the pendulum too far the other way is almost as bad.

Robert Johnson

The Supreme Court discussed the evidence, and in discussing the evidence, they went over specific items that were relevant to our case.

Clayton Ikei

This might not exactly be the apology I had been seeking, but it is still a step forward. I will now wait for the outcome of my petition in the Pakistani Supreme Court.

Sonia Raj Sood

This is the most historic moment in Supreme Court history in our lifetime, no question about it. These are justices who are going to serve for decades.

Jay Sekulow

We condemn the arrest of the leader who was just freed by the Supreme Court. We demand the government immediately release him.

Shobhakar Parajuli

To my knowledge, there's never been a Playboy model in the US Supreme Court.

Paul Rothstein

There's a contradiction between the two, and as always, the Supreme Court wins, and that bodes ill for the California case.

Jeffrey Toobin

The first step therefore is to make the black man come to himself; to pump back life into his empty shell; to infuse him with pride and dignity, to remind him of his complicity in the crime of allowing himself to be misused and therefore letting evil reign supreme in the country of his birth.

Steven Biko

The Supreme Court's decision to hear this case is a dangerous act of hostility aimed squarely at women's health and safety.

Cecile Richards

We firmly believe that a commitment to equality and fairness for all Americans, is a core qualification for a lifetime appointment to the Supreme Court.

Kevin Cathcart

The court of last resort is no longer the Supreme Court. It's "Nightline."

Alan M. Dershowitz

I don't even think this thing is going to be settled in the Court of Appeal. It will probably go to the Supreme Court. We have to get it settled one way or the other.

Ted Costa

I'd actually be surprised if this ever reaches the [Supreme] Court. My prediction is the lower courts will find this an easy case and strike it down. [The Supreme Court] could choose to hear the case or not, and I don't think it's going to.

John Mcginnis

The battle fronts are the Supreme Court, the presidency, the Senate, the House, all the state legislatures, ... That's where most people think these battles are being won. To me, they're forgetting where the battle should be won: houses of worship. That's where indoctrination should take place, not in the halls of Congress.

Derek Davis

He who knows self as the enjoyer of the honey from the flowers of the senses, ever present within, ruler of time, goes beyond fear. For this self is supreme!

Veda Upanishads

We lost the Supreme Court case, but we're ultimately going to win in changing the way that eminent domain is going to be used in this country.

Dana Berliner

Reasonable people can distinguish relatively benign informational activity from political advocacy. In the famous of words of (former Supreme Court Justice) Potter Stewart: It's like pornography - you know it when you see it.

Jon Coupal

The picture. A great plain, comprising the entire Jerusalem district, where is the supreme Commander-in-Chief of the forces of good, Christ our Lord: another plain near Babylon, where Lucifer is, at the head of the enemy.

Saint Ignatius Of Loyola

A great actor is independent of the poet, because the supreme essence of feeling does not reside in prose or in verse, but in the accent with which it is delivered.

Lee Strasberg

This confirmation is also a victory for the nominee, President Bush, and, most of all, the U.S. Senate. Finally, it is a victory for the U.S. Supreme Court which will be led into the 21st century by a brilliant, principled Chief Justice.

Spencer Abraham

That's the right move for a whole variety of reasons and, if I were on the inside, that is what I would be arguing. There is the one and only way for the Supreme Court to start its term with nine members and a chief, and that is to nominate John Roberts.

Bradford A. Berenson

The Supreme Court is saying they're not satisfied that the Crown has brought enough evidence before them to overturn this acquittal.

Rosemary Thompson

RABBLE, n. In a republic, those who exercise a supreme authority tempered by fraudulent elections. The rabble is like the sacred Simurgh, of Arabian fable -- omnipotent on condition that it do nothing. (The word is Aristocratese, and has no exact equivalent in our tongue, but means, as nearly as may be, 'soaring swine.').

Ambrose Bierce

My reading of that case is that the U.S. Supreme Court has said that the state legislature has plenary power, full power, in respect to appointment of presidential electors and that power cannot be eroded even by the state constitution.

Charles Wells

I'm sure there are some Republicans who'd prefer not to deal with it. Sometimes politicians like to slough off issues to Supreme Court, and criticize the court and not have to deal with it themselves.

Bill Saunders

[Still, the Supreme Court is another kind of universe.] If there were an ad for the job, it would be, 'Inside work, no heavy lifting,' ... The justices hear only the cases they want to hear, write only what they want to write. It's great.

Mark Tushnet

The state Supreme Court has ruled that vouchers don't fly. This federal rule is just a way around state law, and we would definitely be opposed to it.

Mark Pudlow

Traditionally a government whose bill is overturned by the legislature has to quit. But here is the Supreme Administrative Court verdict.

Chaiwat Sinsuwong

This may sound bizarre to some of you, but in Canada, one of the two legislative branches never go to the electorate. This is the Senate, which, like the Supreme Court, is appointed by the Government..and is therefore Liberal-dominated.

Stockwell Day

It was likely that this issue would be revisited because the Supreme Court sidestepped the issue in the first place.

Jared Leland

[Michael Ratner of the Center for Constitutional Rights alluded to Plessy v. Ferguson , the notorious 1896 U.S. Supreme Court case that established the] separate-but-equal ... The legacy of that thought is what we saw at the Superdome.

Michael Ratner

Actually, it's also interesting to see the cut-throat competition among domestic holiday regions. Bavaria continues to reign supreme at the top of the list, followed by the Baltic and North Seas.

Horst Opaschowski

It is a scare tactic to prevent women from exercising their right as recognized by the U.S. Supreme Court.

Christina Coloroso

I think that one could argue that these women are letting down the team. Consider a society in which the entire Supreme Court is male. We may actually experience that in our lifetime. What would it feel like if the entire Congress were male?

Linda Hirshman

Presidents come and go, but the Supreme Court goes on forever.

William Howard Taft

To have a Supreme Court open just four weeks from now, the first Monday in October, with only seven people and no chief justice would be unprecedented, and I don't see that happening.

Sheldon Goldman

My response is that's a hypothetical. You don't know what any Supreme Court in the future is going to do.

Jerry Kilgore

We are hopeful that the Supreme Court will agree that Tennessee cannot discriminate against people because of their point of view. If the state is going to give some people the opportunity to express their opinions on their license plates, it must allow people with opposing viewpoints the same opportunity.

Julie Sternberg

There's certainly a lot more to what the Supreme Court does than abortion rights. If we focus too much on abortion, we're missing questions about, say, executive authority over the war on terror. We're missing important questions about civil rights and equal protection. We're missing issues that could affect Americans, a larger percentage.

Jeffrey Segal

I think, at this point, we're going to wait to see what the outcome is at the Supreme Court.

Allison Hrestak

Pakistan has not recognized Israel, ... any such decision would be taken in supreme national interests after due consultation of the parliament.

Shaukat Aziz

The fact [the U.S. Supreme Court] took this up signals a growing recognition that they have an issue they're going to have to deal with.

Jamie Fellner

The supreme quality for leadership is unquestionably integrity. Without it, no real success is possible, no matter whether it is on a section gang, a football field, in an army, or in an office.

Dwight David Eisenhower

He said, referring to Reilly and his staff, ''there's a very good chance that the Supreme Judicial Court will uphold the attorney general.

General Scott

Given her lack of (judicial) experience, does anyone doubt that Ms. Miers' only qualification to be a Supreme Court justice is her close connection to the president?

Randy Barnett

We express our extreme gratitude to all the police . . . for their supreme effort in returning [our son] to us. As a family, we will be forever thankful . . .

Joanne Mcmynn

The election commission is headed by the head of the supreme court in Egypt, which is much higher ranking than the administrative court, so they are not bound by that legally.

Ahmed Nazif

The (Florence County) delegation did them (Florence 1 board members) a courtesy giving them the right to come up with a suggested plan, but the delegation is the supreme school board.

Bobby Bowers

When the [Supreme] Court moved to Washington in 1800, it was provided with no books, which probably accounts for the high quality of early opinions.

Robert H. Jackson

Fernandes is the most appropriate person to hold the post. We respect him very much and he is our supreme leader.

Sharad Yadav

Do we ban a procedure or do we protect a person? I hope that the South Dakota law brings the question of personhood to the Supreme Court.

Diane Hochevar

It's a sophisticated punt, ... I think the Supreme Court is saying, 'Let's buy more time.'

Richard Friedman

PIETY, n. Reverence for the Supreme Being, based upon His supposed resemblance to man. The pig is taught by sermons and epistles To think the God of Swine has snout and bristles. Judibras.

Ambrose Bierce

That's why they have completed all preparations to make the former BNP international affairs secretary and former chief justice the chief adviser of the caretaker government extending the age limits of the judges of the Supreme Court.

Abdur Razzak

That's the kind of question that can wind up very easily in the Supreme Court.

Jeremiah Gertler

The law is crystal clear here. The Supreme Court is not going to really be happy about having to get involved in this case simply to put Cuba on trial. In other words, they are not going to be used politically here; they are smarter than that.

Jose Pertierra

The Supreme Court recognized the gravity of the situation and acted quickly.

Jon Kudrna

This no longer puts the abortion issue in the abstract with the Supreme Court. This is as live a controversy as you can get.

Jay Sekulow

Given what the U.S. Supreme Court did with similar issues, it really isn't surprising that the Ohio Supreme Court followed that.

David Diroll

Since eBay's argument requires overruling long-established legal precedent, we look forward to the consideration of the Supreme Court in this matter.

Scott Robertson

The Supreme Court is going to have to hear this. I think if the plaintiffs are entitled to an accounting, then the court can make that determination.

Jay Bender

Dot, dot, dot, first woman to serve on the U.S. Supreme Court.

Daryn Kagan

We believe there are very strong reasons why the state Supreme Court should take this case. We really think that each individual case has to be decided individually.

Ted Mayer

I would not be surprised if the Supreme Court does decide to weigh in again on this issue. We're early in the process of figuring out what the Supreme Court's ruling really means.

David Elliott

It would be remiss of the commission to move forward before the Supreme Court makes a ruling, ... Unless, that is, they're really doing it for show.

Michael Mori

The train is coming into the station fast, and if I were the Supreme Court I would stand far back.

Pamela Karlan

I wish I could say, 'Heck yeah, we have a real shot at this.' I wish it was different, but the Supreme Court can't hear every case.

Richard Browne

Each of us -- and the Florida Supreme Court has said this -- has a right to control our own body. We have a fundamental right to make our own medical treatment choices, and the state doesn't have a right to override our wishes.

George Felos

I've been a member of the Judiciary Committee for 20 years, and chairman for 12 years. This is the first time that we've ever had a letter or any type of direct report from a member of the Supreme Court regarding misconduct taking place at the Supreme Court. It's extraordinary.

Rep. Michael Lawlor

What that means is that Judge Roberts is guaranteed an up or down vote and he is also guaranteed to be the next chief justice of the Supreme Court.

Gloria Borger

We look forward to the supreme court ruling on the merits of the appeal.

Teresa Tomlinson

He effectively rejected the opinion of the Supreme Court.

David Wilder

It is very possible before the Human Life Amendment gets to the Supreme Court that another justice might also retire.

David Rogers

The Supreme Court explained to universities how it is that they can take race into account in admitting students, and it does lay a road map for the next 25 years on how they'll do that.

Thomas Goldstein

It is the prayer of my innermost being to realize my supreme identity in the liberated play of consciousness, the Vast Expanse. Now is the moment, Here is the place of Liberation.

Alex Grey

We are willing to see what the courts have to say. I want the Supreme Court to look at this case and make a judicial decision so others won't have to go through what we went through.

Gary Mace

[But as the opposition had little to give up as it] holds neither power or position, ... offer that supreme sacrifice of giving up all that they believe is theirs to hold on to.

Gloria Arroyo

We praise the Lord for this decision, now we pray that this positive movement in the Supreme Court will help to speed up the process by which bail will be granted for Dr. Samuel Thomas.

Shelley Thomas

The union didn't agree with the demotion, or we wouldn't have taken it all the way to the Supreme Court.

Jeff Winters

But we are gratified that the Supreme Court has acknowledged and clarified the distinct but separate roles of sheriffs and police officers with regard to law enforcement.

Jack Lewis

We aren't a bit surprised. We never expected them to change their position. We just had to ask for reconsideration because it was a necessary step that needed to be taken before we could request the Utah Supreme Court to review the order.

Claire Geddes

The Supreme Court struck down a nearly identical state ban only six years ago, in part because it failed to include protections for women's health. Congress deliberately defied that ruling when it passed the federal ban.

Talcott Camp

My first death penalty victory--made on behalf of the single most offensive legal argument I've ever made. There was no doubt in my mind, in the minds of my colleagues in the public defenders' office or in the minds of ... the Florida Supreme Court that domestic homicide cases tended to be treated very differently from stranger killings.

Michael Mello

The Supreme Court has made it clear that consenting adults are free to do what they wish in the privacy of their own homes. If you follow the logic of the Oklahoma City police, everyone who tries to pick someone up at a bar is a criminal.

Joann Bell

By any standard this is a low point. It will be interesting to see if Bush goes for a conservative, in-your-face appointment to the Supreme Court to rally the base, which has been more critical than before but has not turned on him.

Norman Ornstein

It's just something that honors them [law officers] for all they do. And that's why we're here today: to honor this young man who gave the supreme sacrifice.

Bill Cook

If the Supreme Court says we can [build], we will. If the court says we can't, we'll probably just deed it to our children. Sooner or later, there's something going to be built on that property.

Glenn Richardson

Constitutional law is under continual reinterpretation by the Supreme court. Attorney General McMaster supports the most stringent penalties allowable for these heinous crimes and will defend any law the General Assembly passes which seeks to stop these monsters.

Trey Walker

If you look at his performance, his education, his attainments, that is the kind of person who has the quality to be in the Supreme Court. This man has a mind like a jewel.

Kent Conrad

(The state Supreme Court) has plenty of time to hear it. They've been hearing things in a matter of hours.

Barry Richard

The first revolt is against the supreme tyranny of theology, of the phantom of God. As long as we have a master in heaven, we will be slaves on earth.

Mikhail Bakunin

I have never seen a response to a Supreme Court decision this dramatic. It is a gut issue, not a partisan issue at all. Whether you are a Massachusetts Democrat or a Republican in South Dakota, you are concerned about your home.

Larry Morandi

Today is a shameful day in the history of American jurisprudence. Today the U.S. Supreme Court has said in its ruling essentially that it is OK for a white prosecutor to kick all of the African Americans off of a jury.

Barbara Becnel

Today's action makes it likely that during the period that the Supreme Court is considering the case, there will likely be a suspension of the interim remedies.

William Kovacic

People need to realize the Supreme Court does most of its business in a written format. People submit written papers, which he can take with him and the oral arguments are recorded. So if you miss something, you are not really missing something.

Jay Jorgensen

We're asking the Supreme Court: If we release the money, can we operate the airport [already]?

Alfonso Cusi

That took the kind of courage and determination you want on the Supreme Court.

Leonard Leo

There are a number of possibilities of what can happen. As you saw in the last remand, we simply issued a clarification that answered the questions that were posed by the U.S. Supreme Court. We just don't know at this point, it's going to depend on what events develop during the day.

Craig Waters

If the U.S. Supreme Court would agree with the South Dakota case, Roe is overturned. There would be nothing left of Roe v. Wade.

Pam Sutherland

All they had was a permit to explore for metals. Now the U.S. Supreme Court has refused to acknowledge a valid ?takings' claim, which is the heart of their challenge in federal court (too). It seems that now would be the time for them to go away.

Jim Jensen

It's a little early to assume that the Supreme Court would give blessing to vouchers. Everybody is trying to make assumptions based on a case that is not a voucher case.

Rob Boston

We're picking a Supreme Court justice here, not a Sunday school teacher. President Bush and his allies should be talking about Miers' knowledge of the Constitution, not the Bible.

Barry Lynn

There's no question he's going to move the Supreme Court to the right because he is conservative.

Timothy Lewis

Pro-family and pro-life Americans must continue to speak up and have their voices heard in this process as the Senate debates and votes on the new Supreme Court justice nominee.

Roberta Combs

The Supreme and High Court have stated that persons who have been arrested should only be detained when it is necessary. It cannot be said that women, some of whom were carrying babies and were holding a peaceful demonstration require detention as if they were dangerous criminals.

James Joseph

The Janjaweed are like a grotesque mixture of the mafia and the Ku Klux Klan, ... These guys have a racist ideology that sees the Arab population as the supreme population that would like to see the subjugation of non-Arab peoples. They're criminal racketeers that have been supported very directly by the government to wage the war against the people of Darfur.

John Prendergast

First of all, our court is unanimous in 70% of its cases. That's a fact that's not often known, whereas the United States Supreme Court is unanimous only in about 40% to 45% of cases. So our court is a much more collegial court. You don't have these 5 to 4 splits that often.

Patrick Monahan

Despite their personal preferences which still splits even, the public is telling us let's get on with it. And if the Supreme Court says otherwise even if its against my own position, I'm willing to live with it.

Frank Newport

It's good for the county because it was probably headed to the Supreme Court anyway. This way we skip a step.

Brad Norton

This is good news for taxpayers and the states. We hope the Supreme Court will bring some clarity to this area of the law and affirm the principle that states are free to develop their own business climates, so long as they do not discriminate against out-of-state taxpayers.

Chris Atkins

The Alabama Supreme Court has made that ruling that a commissioner or a board member must be physically present.

John Norris

Do I hate you? No! Not hate?Hate's a word far too intense,Too alive, to speak a stateOf supreme indifference.

William Wetmore Story

It seems perfectly reasonable for the president to want members of the executive branch to be loyal to him and to follow his directions rather than those of the bureaucracies they lead. They will leave their positions when the president leaves. Making a lifetime appointment of a friend to the Supreme Court is a whole different matter.

Randy Barnett

.We will finish that exercise. by July for the start-up of case management in the Criminal Division of the Supreme Court, which will improve the efficiency of that operation.

Carol Palmer

If we have to take it to the [state] Supreme Court, we'll take it to the [state] Supreme Court.

Guy Talarico

I'm sure a sitting Supreme Court justice believes that providing some final closure on all these legal arguments might be a good thing here.

Lanny Davis

There is clear repudiation of the government's absolute position that the courts have no role. The Supreme Court did offer the executive a real change to balance how much procedure the detainees would get, it's not that they have all the rights of a U.S. citizen in every court case, but it does absolutely reject the president's claim that it is only his choice who gets to go to court and when.

Thomas Goldstein

Washington state's Supreme Court right now, any day, is going to deliver their ruling on marriage, so it's something that we've been waiting for a while now to happen.

Brad Luna

The state Supreme Court did not pay much attention to the federal statute. It was obviously aware of it.

Theodore Olson

Tens of thousands of documents have already been released ? more than any Supreme Court nominee in history, ... And with each new release of information, it's growing increasingly difficult for the president's opponents to complain with a straight face about the need for more information.

John Cornyn

The Supreme Court is an institution far more dominated by centrifugal forces, pushing toward individuality and independence, than it is by centripetal forces pulling for hierarchical ordering and institutional unity.

William H. Rehnquist

The Supreme Court dealt with the compact issue ... but it's a completely different issue than the first time. It's a different argument.

Bill Fulkerson

The Supreme Court has never confronted the question of an American being held here [in the United States], or where you have a whole group of people who are being held in a U.S. base at one time without access to courts whatsoever.

Thomas Goldstein

The events of this week as a whole are showing the need for the Supreme Court to step in and give guidance.

Ben Wizner

The Supreme Court that used to be pushing us forward is undermining efforts to desegregate.

Gary Orfield

It's premature, we don't have the votes on the Supreme Court right now. We're busy with these other bills that are very important and do-able.

Margie Montgomery

I even like Taco Bell. I love the beef burrito supreme. I don't like their tacos, but I'll go there every once in a while, sure.

Alberto Martinez

It's yet to be determined how Roberts will deal with important decisions. I don't know his position on issues like stem-cell research, abortion or affirmative action. These are things that someone may attempt to bring to the Supreme Court.

James Payne

The issue of whether taxpayer money needs, and should, be used for a religion-bashing kind of exhibit like that is a legitimate legal issue to be litigated. Maybe, some day, it will come up to the Supreme Court and we'll see what they might say on an issue like that.

Michael Hess

Even though the symbols of my victories are being sold, what I will always retain is the knowledge that for such a long period I was the supreme world tennis champion.

Bjorn Borg

This is a supreme test of Bush's leadership at a time when resources are thin and his approval ratings are perilously low.

John Zogby

The Supreme Court of the United States has held that a public body or a deliberative body who chooses to open its sessions with a religious invocation has a secular purpose for doing so -- to solemnize the event -- and that's perfectly acceptable. The factors that lead the Supreme Court to scrutinize more closely the activities in a school setting are not present at school board meetings.

Kirk Gasperecz

The U.S. Supreme Court is the highest court of the land. We do not ignore what they tell us. The court now has the matter under advisement and will determine how to proceed.

Craig Waters

Taste is the fundamental quality which sums up all the other qualities. It is the nec plus ultra of the intelligence. Through this alone is genius the supreme health and balance of all the faculties.

Isidore Ducasse Lautreamont

If you believe those rules have been changed by the state Supreme Court in this instance, you have the legal right and indeed the constitutional duty at that point to intervene.

John Yoo

We believe strongly that each of these companies made its own decision. We will be filing petitions to appeal to New Jersey Supreme Court.

Ted Mayer

Initial open court sessions of death penalty cases during their second verdict in some provinces and municipalities have proved to be successful. The Supreme People's Court is confident to spread it nationwide.

Xiao Yang

Only we can stop Missouri from becoming South Dakota. The right to abortion is up in the air right now. There's a good chance that the Supreme Court might send it back to the states, and so if young people stay complacent, we could lose the right to choose. But if we keep fighting we could save our rights.

Victoria Pickering

The Supreme Court has not closed the doors of justice to the detainees imprisoned at Guantanamo Bay. This is a major victory for the rule of law and affirms the right of every person, citizen or non-citizen, detained by the United States to test the legality of his or her detention in a U.S. Court.

Michael Ratner

I have no idea what the Ports Authority is thinking and I never have. We're moving forward with the condemnation and feel confident it's back on track and are delighted that the Supreme Court ruling justified our right to build a marine terminal on the Savannah River.

Andrew Fulghum

Don't be surprised if Democrats win the White House one of their nominations to the Supreme Court is Judge James Robertson. Don't be surprised.

Sid Francis

I believe that there's no argument for saying 'no' once the Supreme Court has ruled on a decision, ... American Morning.

Norman Pearlstine

The fact that they've seen fit to designate people for trial by military commission when the very constitutionality of the tribunal is up before the Supreme Court just evinces the most blatant disdain for the judicial branch and the separation of powers principle.

Barbara Olshansky

They have blinders on. They want a state court to decide their case, and they can't have a state court decide their case without overruling 200 years of United States Supreme Court precedents.

Howard Dickstein

We hope that the Supreme Court, as the last bastion of law, provides the president with fair and balanced opinions before he decides on the fate of these three.

Roy Rening

Alan was a great football player, but he would never have been elected to the Minnesota Supreme Court if he also wasn't a great lawyer.

Bill Hillsman

The timing of this bill, the way it was driven through right as the court was considering this, it was intended to be a clear message to the Supreme Court. I don't think the state Supreme Court acts in a bubble.

Sen. Brad Benson

I'm adamant. The antenna is going to stay here or I'm going to the Supreme Court.

Hans Ehlert

I can't predict the future, but I can tell you that people are very upset over the past actions of state officials, to include the governor and justices of the Supreme Court, who have chosen to blindly follow a federal court order to remove the acknowledgment of God from Alabama.

Roy Moore

It is money, money, money! Not ideas, not principles, but money that reigns supreme in American politics.

Robert C. Byrd

The Supreme Court is a space shield protecting Roe from the conservative federal officials that would overturn it in a second, ... If the new justice opposes abortion, the gamma rays could melt, and the shield would no longer be protective.

Sarah Weddington

We realize that the Supreme National Security Council has asked the newspapers to avoid publishing Saba TV advertisements and news of Saba TV (and said) this network's activities are illegal in Iran.

Behrouz Afkhami

The limousine is the ultimate ego trip, the supreme sign of success. It shouts: "Hey, this guy is really and truly Mr Big."

William Proxmire

It becomes us in humility to make our devout acknowledgments to the Supreme Ruler of the Universe for the inestimable civil and religious blessings with which we are favored.

James Polk

Today the Supreme Court did not rule that the president has the authority to detain an American citizen on American soil. What they did was delay the inevitable -- that Padilla must be charged with a crime.

Jose Padilla

I have no doubt that every inmate nearing execution will glom onto this. But I can't imagine the Supreme Court requiring a state to do something that can't be done.

Kent Scheidegger

Seven said 'Yes,' three said 'No' and one was absent and hence two reports reflecting both views went to the Supreme Court.

Claude Alvares

Since I am putting a case to the Supreme Court, if a senior law form comes forward, and charges me reasonably, and presents my case effectively, it will be a great obligation to me.

Arun Bavdekar

Of course there are implications, for the death penalty and death row inmates in all states, when the Supreme Court of the land hears such a case.

Jim Morgan

We believe the Indian Supreme Court will rule favorably on July 19th to allow the rollout of mobile CDMA networks in India. While this could lead to a two-month delay in the deployment of services, the impact is expected to be minimal this year.

Jeffrey Schlesinger

In some ways, he has the same kind of personality that [Supreme Court Justice] Hugo Black did: people perceive him as being that kind of driving personality, ... He's like a bloodhound, because once he finds the scent, he doesn't lick his nose, he just runs hard after it.

George Freeman

Let me make this plain, Chris Lorenzo, and I also mean his brother Irv, did not launder anyone's money. Supreme never brought money of any kind.
