Famous quotes containing the words supreme, court and/or cases:

    “Liberalism—it is well to recall this today—is the supreme form of generosity; it is the right which the majority concedes to minorities and hence it is the noblest cry that has ever resounded in this planet. It announces the determination to share existence with the enemy; more than that, with an enemy which is weak.”
    —José Ortega Y Gasset (1883–1955)

    “Rome, like Washington, is small enough, quiet enough, for strong personal intimacies; Rome, like Washington, has its democratic court and its entourage of diplomatic circle; Rome, like Washington, gives you plenty of time and plenty of sunlight. In New York we have annihilated both.”
    —M. E. W. Sherwood (1826–1903)

    “To think is of itself to be useful; it is always and in all cases a striving toward God.”
    —Victor Hugo (1802–1885)
