Famous quotes containing the word judges:

    The laws of Caesar are one thing, those of Christ, another. Papinianus judges one way, our Paul another.
    Jerome (c. 340–420)

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

    The rage for road building is beneficent for America, where vast distance is so main a consideration in our domestic politics and trade, inasmuch as the great political promise of the invention is to hold the Union staunch, whose days already seem numbered by the mere inconvenience of transporting representatives, judges and officers across such tedious distances of land and water.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
