State Supreme Courts

Famous quotes containing the words state, supreme and/or courts:

    To place liberty in an indifferency, antecedent to the thought and judgment of the understanding, seems to me to place liberty in a state of darkness, wherein we can neither see nor say any thing of it.
    John Locke (1632–1704)

    We must know, if only in order to learn not to know. The supreme lesson of human consciousness is to learn how not to know. That is, how not to interfere.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    And about her courts were seen
    Liveried angels robed in green,
    Wearing, by St Patrick’s bounty,
    Emeralds big as half the county.
    Walter Savage Landor (1775–1864)
