Famous quotes containing the word judges:

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

    In England the judges should have independence to protect the people against the crown. Here the judges should not be independent of the people, but be appointed for not more than seven years. The people would always re-elect the good judges.
    Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)

    Although your knowledge is weak and small, you need not be silent: Since you cannot be judges be at least witnesses.
    Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
