More quotes by Cass Sunstein
Even though Star Wars is easily read as feminist for its time - and even for now, with Princess Leia's role - people wouldn't make a movie like that in 2016, where the guys are mostly the tough ones, and the women aren't in positions of authority.
Cass Sunstein
I wouldn't call Trump supporters or Sanders supporters fanatical. One thing, I would say they're very discouraged with where things are. I don't think in either case they're fanatical.
Cass Sunstein
Catholicism is a wide tent in terms of political and legal positions. We could have nine Catholics on the Supreme Court and a great deal of diversity toward the law.
Cass Sunstein
Sometimes, the word 'voluntary' is a little complicated.
Cass Sunstein
I would reject the distinction between a Keynesian moment and a behavioral moment.
Cass Sunstein
I love The Matrix, especially the first one.
Cass Sunstein
There is no reason to believe that in the face of statutory ambiguity, the meaning of federal law should be settled by the inclinations and predispositions of federal judges. The outcome should instead depend on the commitments and beliefs of the President and those who operate under him.
Cass Sunstein
I think that every state in the union should recognize same-sex marriage.
Cass Sunstein
I dealt with people with diverse political views. If you find people who are your political opponents, and talk to them for an hour, chances are you're going to like them, and they're not full of hate.
Cass Sunstein
Some of the Hulk movies have been merely okay. I think the thing to do... there has to be some stab that makes it something we haven't seen before.
Cass Sunstein
Liberals are sometimes defined as people who can't take their own side in an argument.
Cass Sunstein
It's deeply human to do both the worst things and the best things because of your fear of loss.
Cass Sunstein
I think it may be that the fans of your least-favorite political candidate, whoever it is, are much more likable and light-side types than you might think going in. One way to reach them is to talk about Star Wars.
Cass Sunstein
I got into the genesis of Star Wars, and the tale seemed to me endlessly fascinating.
Cass Sunstein
Once we know that people are human and have some Homer Simpson in them, then there's a lot that can be done to manipulate them.
Cass Sunstein
Whatever your gender, you can be a Star Wars fan. Of course I knew it from life before, but the core of enthusiastic female fans is a testimony to the non-gendered nature of the audience.
Cass Sunstein
Wikipedia works because those who know the truth are usually more numerous and committed than those who believe in a falsehood.
Cass Sunstein
I strongly believe that the Second Amendment creates an individual right to possess and use guns for purposes of both hunting and self-defense.
Cass Sunstein
Almost all gun control legislation is constitutionally fine. And, if the court is right, then fundamentalism does not justify the view that the Second Amendment protects an individual right to bear arms.
Cass Sunstein
Most problems are best solved privately, not through government. There's a problem of discourtesy in the world, which is best handled through social norms, which are indispensable. But you wouldn't want the government to be mandating courtesy.
