Famous quotes containing the words court and/or honor:

    “We should have learnt by now that laws and court decisions can only point the way. They can establish criteria of right and wrong. And they can provide a basis for rooting out the evils of bigotry and racism. But they cannot wipe away centuries of oppression and injustice—however much we might desire it.”
    —Hubert H. Humphrey (1911–1978)

    “The cross of the Legion of Honor has been conferred on me. However, few escape that distinction.”
    —Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
