My experience is, people who retire die sooner than they should have.

Can any of you seriously say the Bill of Rights could get through Congress today? It wouldn't even get out of committee.

In America, an acquittal doesn't mean you're innocent, it means you beat the rap. My clients lose even when they win.

The public regards lawyers with great distrust. They think lawyers are smarter than the average guy but use their intelligence deviously. Well, they're wrong. Usually they are not smarter.

I have never seen a major trial which lacked significant perjury, and I have yet to see that perjury punished.

I use the rules to frustrate the law. But I didn't set up the ground rules.

Fear is something you have to throw into a corner. Constantly. Because it never goes away.

I would strongly recommend any young man to stay away from criminal law. It's not a good place to be, unfortunately.

Among the rednecks of America, which there are many more than people seem to realize, it was terribly damaging. I got blamed for O.J.'s acquittal.

I enjoy personal injury cases. I've tried quite a few of those. And, frankly, any kind of litigation that is trouble-shooting, whether it's equities, suits and injunctions, or whatever.

Justice Scalia is predictable. He can be counted on to come down with a conservative opinion, and generally, to bring Justice Clarence Thomas with him.

I will not exchange my time for money.

The people who live in the past must yield to the people who live in the future. Otherwise the world would begin to turn the other way round.

When we commune with the spirit within and ask for new ideas, they are always forthcoming.

People think of songwriting as a very personal thing: A guy gets up there with an acoustic guitar and he sings his heart out, bares his soul.

I challenge record companies to show me evidence of a single penny they've lost due to Napster.

The only thing experience teaches you is what you can't do. When you start, you think you can do anything. And then you start to get a little tired.

I voted, always vote. It's very important to me. My kids, I take them with me since they were little, so they realize it's a responsibility.

I'm a serious aficionada of country music - Reba McEntire, Toby Keith, Montgomery Gentry. I've even written some songs. They haven't done anything of mine yet. But it's only a matter of time.

Ultimate novelty must be a situation where all boundaries are dissolved.

Though I often disagree with Republicans, I never learned to hate them the way the far right that now controls their party seems to hate our president [Barack Obama] and a lot of other Democrats.
