Privacy is not for the passive.

I was very much influenced by a great book by the scholar Neil Richards called Intellectual Privacy, that [Louis] Brandeis changed his mind on the proper balance between dignity and free speech.

We need to protect the same amount of cognitive liberty in an age where you can invade people's thoughts without physically intruding into their homes than you did at the time of the framing.

[Louis] Brandeis improves the prose. He simplifies it and perfects the balance of the sentence so it becomes even more memorable and aphoristic.

[Louis] Brandeis is writing directly to us. His clear voice comes through a century and he's speaking to us and he's galvanizing us and he's persuading us. And that's why I love to read the prose.

[Louis Brandeis] believes in natural rights of speech and liberty and the right to pursue happiness.

[Oliver Wendell] Holmes never believed in the truth and morality of the laws he was upholding. He said, "I loathe the thick-fingered clowns we call the people."

I think the answer has to do with the fact that [Louis D.] Brandeis was a consistent critic of bigness in business and in government.

[Louis] Brandeis had a very distinctive vision of political economy that he persuaded Woodrow Wilson to adopt in the 1912 election and that he largely enacted from the bench.

[Louis] Brandeis is often painted as an acolyte of judicial restraint, or the view that judges should uphold laws whether or not they like them.

Do you think Bernie Sanders, for example, is citing Theodore Roosevelt as the progenitor of his critique of the banks when actually Roosevelt wanted to keep the banks together and regulate them.

How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation, who say to Zion, "Your God reigns!"Isaiah 52:7

Different skin color and same blood color is something that most people don't know, they don't know because arrogance make them racist and ignorant.

God bless us everyoneWe're a broken people living under loaded gunAnd it can't be outfoghtIt can't be outdoneIt can't out matchedIt can't be outrunNo

Life will never surrender its secrets to a yardstick.

At last I have come into a dreamland.

If most people wanted to be incognito, they put on a fake beard or mustache. If I wanted to I'd just shave mine off.

The beginnings and endings of all human undertakings are untidy.

Personally speaking there's only so long you can go from film to film to film. There's an inspiration an actor gets from the stage.

I am a bit of a daydreamer.

After death there is nothing.
