Famous quotes containing the words chief and/or justices:
“The chief value of money lies in the fact that one lives in a world in which it is overestimated.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
“If the justices would only retire when they have become burdens to the court itself, or when they recognize themselves that their faculties have become impaired, I would grieve sincerely when they passed away, and you would not feel like such a hypocrite as you do when you are going through the formality of sending telegrams of condolence and giving out interviews for propriety’s sake.”
—William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
