I Think That Lawyers Are Terrible At

A Good Lawyer Knows How To Shut Up When He's Won His Case.

I'm Not A Single-issue Person, But I Spend So Much Time On Israel Because It Is So Unfairly Condemned Around The World.

I Think Mistakes Are The Essence Of Science And Law. It's Impossible To Conceive Of Either Scientific Progress Or Legal Progress Without Understanding The Important Role Of Being Wrong And Of Mistakes.

I Don't Think The Law Exists To Arrive At The Truth. If It Did, We Wouldn't Have Exclusionary Rules, We Wouldn't Have Presumptions Of Innocence, We Wouldn't Have Proof Beyond Reasonable Doubt. There's An Enormous Difference Between The Role Of Truth In Law And The Role Of Truth In Science. In Law, Truth Is One Among Many Goals.

I Never Place Limits On The Potential Success Of My Students. If They're Going Into Acting, They're Going To Win The Oscar... If They're Going Into Law, They're Going To Be Chief Justice.
