All sides in a trial want to hide at least some of the truth.

I think there would be less torture with a warrant requirement than without one.

I tell my students, if you ever become comfortable with your role as criminal defense lawyer, it's time to quit. It should be a constant source of discomfort, because you're dealing with incredible moral ambiguity, and you've been cast into a role which is not enviable.

When I was 14 or 15, a camp counselor told me I was smart. I had never been very good in school, but he told me once that I was smart but my mind operated a little differently.

I will continue to fight for justice, fairness, and constitutional rights until my dying breath.

I've had such a satisfying life professionally and personally. I hope my tombstone says, 'Never boring.'

It's every lawyer's dream to help shape the law, not just react to it.
