It's A Quote

[Angrboda]

“The more you think about what happens in the United States, the more you feel persuaded that in this country the body of jurists forms the most powerful and, so to speak, the sole counterweight of democracy.” Even though all literate Americans could read and understand their Constitution, American judges treated the document as inscrutable to all but themselves. Like “the priests of Egypt,” they considered themselves “the sole interpreter of an occult science.”

Alexis de Tocqueville


“If the policy of the Government upon vital questions ... is to be irrevocably fixed by decisions of the Supreme Court, the people will have ceased to be their own rulers”

Abraham Lincoln
