Do what you think is right and let the law catch up.

Customary greeting to Chief Justice Warren E. Burger, What's shaking, chiefy baby?

Classifications and distinctions based on race or color have no moral or legal validity in our society. They are contrary to our constitution and laws.

Sometimes history takes things into its own hands.

What's shaking, chiefy baby?

Today's Constitution is a realistic document of freedom only because of several corrective amendments. Those amendments speak to a sense of decency and fairness that I and other Blacks cherish.

Our whole constitutional heritage rebels at the thought of giving government the power to control men's minds.
