    “Mas long as I get somewhere,” Alice added as an explanation.
    “Oh, you’re sure to do that,” said the Cat, “if you only walk long enough.”
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)

    I’m no idealist to believe firmly in the integrity of our courts and in the jury system—that is no ideal to me, it is a living, working reality. Gentlemen, a court is no better than each man of you sitting before me on this jury. A court is only as sound as its jury, and a jury is only as sound as the men who make it up.
    —Harper Lee (b. 1926)

    Every immigrant who comes here should be required within five years to learn English or leave the country.
    —Theodore Roosevelt (1858–1919)
