More quotes by Earl Warren
When the rights of any individual or group are chipped away, the freedom of all erodes.
Earl Warren
You sit up there, and you see the whole gamut of human nature. Even if the case being argued involves only a little fellow and $50, it involves justice. That's what is important.
Earl Warren
To get what you want, STOP doing what isn't working.
Earl Warren
A society, in the process of moving forward, often appears to be tearing itself apart. Certainly, an age of rapid change, such as ours, produces many paradoxes. But perhaps the most tragic paradox of our time is to be found in the failure of nation-states to recognize the imperatives of internationalism.
Earl Warren
Don't complain about growing old — many, many people do not have that privilege.
Earl Warren
In The Field Of Public Education, The Doctrine Of 'Separate But Equal' Has No Place
Earl Warren
Citizenship is the right to have rights.
Earl Warren
I'm very pleased with each advancing year. It stems back to when I was forty. I was a bit upset about reaching that milestone, but an older friend consoled me. Don't complain about growing old - many, many people do not have that privilege.
Earl Warren
Those who serve upon our juries have maintained a standard of fairness and excellence and demonstrated a vision toward the administration of justice that is a wellspring of inspiration.
Earl Warren
Racial discrimination in public education is unconstitutional.....All provisions of federal, state or local law requiring or permitting such discrimination must yield to this principle.
Earl Warren
It is the spirit and not the form of law that keeps justice alive.
Earl Warren
To summarize: Americans have one of the greatest legal systems, but not a monopoly of the sense of justice, which is universal nor have we a permanent copyright on the means of securing justice, for it is the spirit and not the form of law that keeps justice alive.
Earl Warren
Liberty, not communism, is the most contagious force in the world.
Earl Warren
If Nixon is not forced to turn over tapes of his conversations with the ring of men who were conversing on their violations of the law, then liberty will soon be dead in this nation.
Earl Warren
It would indeed be ironic if, in the name of national defence, we would sanction the subversion of one of those liberties which make the defence of our nation worthwhile.
Earl Warren
In mid-life the man wants to see how irresistible he still is to younger women. How they turn their hearts to stone and more or less commit a murder of their marriage I just don't know, but they do.
Earl Warren
Separate educational facilities are inherently unequal.
Earl Warren
We are now at the point where we must decide whether we are to honour the concept of a plural society which gains strength through diversity, or whether we are to have bitter fragmentation that will result in perpetual tension and strife.
Earl Warren
Legislatures represent people, not acres or trees.
Earl Warren
I hate banks. They do nothing positive for anybody except take care of themselves. They're first in with their fees and first out when there's trouble.
Earl Warren
