Case

Famous quotes containing the word case:

    “I do not allow myself to be moved by anything except the law. If there has been a mistake in the law, or if I think there has been perjury or injustice, I will weigh the petition most carefully, but I do not permit myself to be moved by more harrowing details, and I try to treat each case as if I was reviewing it or hearing it for the first time from the bench.”
    —William Howard Taft (1857–1930)

    “My case is a species of madness, only that it is a derangement of the Volition, & not of the intellectual faculties.”
    —Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)

    “When a thing is said to be not worth refuting you may be sure that either it is flagrantly stupid—in which case all comment is superfluous—or it is something formidable, the very crux of the problem.”
    —Miguel de Unamuno (1864–1936)
