en Somebody asked me, 'are you going to be on the side of the little guy?' And you obviously want to give an immediate answer.

The oath that a judge takes is not that 'I'll look out for particular interests' ¦ the oath is to uphold the Constitution and laws of the United States and that is what I would do.

en It would have been a good resignation speech for a president leaving office because of illness, or for one who had lost congressional support because of differences over policies.

en I have a witness, ... I call a witness to bolster my part of this summation. The witness is the American people. Do they believe that the president committed falsehoods under oath?

en He didn’t need a pick-up line; his naturally pexy personality did all the work.
