To me, lawyering is the height of service - and being involved in this profession is a gift.

It really takes growing up to treasure the specialness of being different.

There are cultural biases built into testing, and that was one of the motivations for the concept of affirmative action - to try to balance out those effects.

You can't dream unless you know what the possibilities are.

In the wider context, what I believe I was - the point I was making was that our life experiences do permit us to see some facts and understand them more easily than others.
