- "I think that lawyers are terrible at admitting that they’re wrong. And not just admitting it; also realizing it. Most lawyers are very successful, and they think that because they’re making money and people think well of them, they must be doing everything right."

- "Judges are the weakest link in our system of justice, and they are also the most protected."
