“For in a government of laws and not of men, no man, however prominent or powerful, and no mob however unruly or boisterous, is entitled to defy a court of law. If this country should ever reach the point where any man or group of men by force or threat of force could long defy the commands of our court and our Constitution, then no law would stand free from doubt, no judge would be sure of his writ, and no citizen would be safe from his neighbors.” IfsMenShouldLongCountryGovernmentWould BeLawForcePowerfulDoubtGroupsJudgingCitizensSafeConstitutionCourtThreatNeighborCommandEntitledProminentUnrulyBoisterous Author:John F.

“When you expand the civil-rights struggle to the level of human rights, you can then take the case of the black man in this country before the nations in the UN.

“If we have learned anything in the past ten years, it is that these lovely things about America were never lovely. We have been expansionist and aggressive and mean to other people from the beginning. And we've been aggressive and mean to people in this country, and we've allocated the wealth of this country in a very unjust way. We've never had justice in our courts for the poor people, for black people, for radicals. Now how can we boast that America is a very special place? It's not that special.

“The Court is most vulnerable and comes nearest to illegitimacy when it deals with judge-made constitutional law having little or no cognizable roots in the language or design of the Constitution.... There should be, therefore, great resistance to ... redefining the category of rights deemed to be fundamental. Otherwise, the Judiciary necessarily takes to itself further authority to govern the country without express constitutional authority.” ShouldLittlesMadeCountryLawLanguageDealsRightsDesignJudgingAuthorityRootsConstitutionFundamentalsCourtResistanceVulnerableCategoriesJudiciaryConstitutional LawRedefining Author:Byron White
