Judges are not politicians.
The judiciary must be independent.
The law is not a science.
The law must be a reflection of our values.
The law should be a shield for the weak.
The_Constitution_is_not_a_static_document.
Justice_is_not_a_game.
The_First_Amendment_is_not_a_license_for_the_government_to_discriminate.
The_Constitution_is_a_document_of_liberty.
I_have_always_believed_that_the_Constitution_is_a_living_document.
