In my work as a Supreme Court justice, I was required by the Constitution to fairly and impartially apply the law—not the law as I wanted it to be but the law as it was. Now, as a private citizen, I am anxious about the state of the judiciary in America. - Justice Sandra Day O'Connor

Interesting feel good article in Sunday's Parade about lower court abuse being so rampant.
