You've got to learn to handle the press because god knows the government does all the time.

There's a lot of active radical thought today but not much action.

There are lawyers who believe in client-centered representation and who are dedicated on the same level I feel I was dedicated.

Lawyering is very individualistic. There are lawyers who are going to be that persistent birddog, they're never going to give up on the client, they're going to defend people.

If you make a mistake as a prosecutor, your mistakes go home, whereas if you make a mistake defending, they go to jail.

The only way not to be afraid is to join with other people who are also afraid.

I'm particularly committed to the political people who needed defense. I understand that they're fighting a bigger war than just, "Let me go get some money for cocaine tonight."
