Famous quotes containing the words trials and/or jury:
“On the whole, yes, I would rather be the Chief Justice of the United States, and a quieter life than that which becomes at the White House is more in keeping with the temperament, but when taken into consideration that I go into history as President, and my children and my children’s children are the better placed on account of that fact, I am inclined to think that to be President well compensates one for all the trials and criticisms he has to bear and undergo.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
“Shocking writing is like murder: the questions the jury must decide are the questions of motive and intent.”
—E.B. (Elwyn Brooks)
