Each lawyer makes somebody unhappy either by beating him, embarrassing him or tying him in knots.

Justice Scalia is predictable. He can be counted on to come down with a conservative opinion, and generally, to bring Justice Clarence Thomas with him.

I would strongly recommend any young man to stay away from criminal law. It's not a good place to be, unfortunately.

The quality of news coverage has diminished, because giants of the print media are no longer being nurtured properly.

I enjoy personal injury cases. I've tried quite a few of those. And, frankly, any kind of litigation that is trouble-shooting, whether it's equities, suits and injunctions, or whatever.

I get paid for seeing that my clients have every break the law allows. I have knowingly defended a number of guilty men. But the guilty never escape unscathed. My fees are sufficient punishment for anyone.

The people I have no feeling for are professional killers. But I count that man no worse than a governor who won't commute a death sentence because it's unpolitical.
