Higher Court

Famous quotes containing the words higher and/or court:

    The lesson learned here is a costly one: If you stand up for your principles, follow the law, and win massively, you lose totally.
    Linda J. Carpenter, U.S. educator. As quoted in the Chronicle of Higher Education, p. A38 (July 15, 1992)

    When a man’s feeling and character are injured, he ought to seek a speedy redress.... My character you have injured, and further you have insulted me in the presence of a court and large audience. I therefore call upon you as a gentleman to give me satisfaction for the same.
    Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)
