Judges

Famous quotes containing the word judges:

    Let judges secretly despair of justice: their verdicts will be more acute. Let generals secretly despair of triumph; killing will be defamed. Let priests secretly despair of faith: their compassion will be true.
    Leonard Cohen (b. 1934)

    Men over forty are no judges of a book written in a new spirit.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    The judges did the punishing, the criminals paid for their crimes and I, free of responsibilities, removed from judgment and from punishment, I ruled, freely, in an edenic light.
