If there was anybody that has been sort of the social glue of the court, it's been Sandra and I will miss her,

Some people are inherently likeable. If you're not - work on it. It may even improve your social life.

The court makes an amazing amount of decisions that ought to be made by the people.

The Court today completes the process of converting Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 from a guarantee that race or sex will not be the basis for often will.

The Constitution that I interpret and apply is not living, but dead, or as I prefer to call it, enduring. It means, today, not what current society, much less the court, thinks it ought to mean, but what it meant when it was adopted.

With each decision of ours that takes from the People a question properly left to them - with each decision that is unabashedly based not on law, but on the 'reasoned judgment' of a bare majority of this Court - we move one step closer to being reminded of our impotence.
