There comes a time when a human being has to either face evil or admit to allowing it. Abortion is legal in the United States  but it should not be celebrated or used as a political tool. Viable babies are human beings.|Bill O’Reilly

Americans have grown a great deal more realistic about lawyers and the law. I think that’s all for the good. A lot of people will say to you these days ‘If you are looking for justice        don’t go to a courtroom.’ That’s just a more realistic perspective on what happens in the legal process.|Scott Turow

A Supreme Court ruling is supposed to provide clarity to contentious legal issues   but in the case of reproductive rights   it was just the beginning of a long heated           and grueling debate.|Mike Quigley

I wish the government and the Minister of Justice would address these legal and constitutional arguments      but they refuse to. They want Canadians to go blindly into their brave new world   but it is not wise for a society to move blindly in any direction.|Stockwell Day

Christian Science has been enormously influential in our religious history    and the church is very powerful. It has won an extraordinary number of legal battles in this country. It has succeeded in passing a number of what are called ‘religious exemption laws.’|Caroline Fraser

Judges cannot – nor should they try to – align our legal system with the Church’s moral teaching whenever the two diverge. They should   however        conform their own behavior to the Church’s standard.|Amy Coney Barrett

My job is to interpret the law based on how the legislature and the court has done it and then        of course to use our system of justice to develop some new legal tools and new concepts.|Bill Scott

Children must be considered in a divorce considered valuable pawns in the nasty legal and financial contest that is about to ensue.|P. J. O’Rourke

Public housing is off-limits to you if you have been convicted of a felony. For a minimum of five years            you are deemed ineligible for public housing once you’ve been branded a felon. Discrimination in private housing market’s perfectly legal.|Michelle Alexander

Legal immigrants have been an engine of economic growth     innovation    and entrepreneurship on this continent for longer than we have been a nation.|Luis Gutierrez

Congressional overseers and the public must be given appropriate insight into government activities as well as their legal rationale to ensure America’s values are being upheld and our interests advanced.|Dianne Feinstein

The U.S. immigration system is the most generous in the world          providing each year more green cards for legal permanent residence with a clear path to full citizenship than all the rest of the nations of the world combined.|Jan C. Ting

I’m a sporting professional; I don’t have a great understanding of tax and legal matters.|Javier Mascherano

Much of the work legal executives do has to be supervised by a solicitor      irrespective of the experience or ability of the individual. In practice          this is a major disincentive to legal executives setting up their own high street practices. Even when they can do the work   they are still tied to solicitors.|Dominic Raab

In recent years personal injury attorneys and trial lawyers have attacked the food industry with numerous lawsuits alleging that these businesses should pay monetary damages to those who       of their own accord       consume too much of a legal         safe product.|Bob Ney

It is indefensible that IRS Commissioner Koskinen has not been held accountable for failing to meet his legal obligations. This is exactly what the American people are tired of when they say that our government is on the wrong track.|Bill Flores

Food is like a legal drug. You can take 50 cents and walk into the store and buy a Twinkie and get high. And it’s killing people.|Fat Joe

The settlers    as we know  are the only people in Israel who take the Left seriously. When you read the settlers’ publications      you think that the leftists are everywhere: The leftists infiltrate the government   the leftists run the Defense Ministry        the leftists dominate the legal establishment            and the leftists control the media  of course.|Yair Lapid

No one can doubt that the sufferings of the sober           virtuous woman       in legal subjection to the mastership of a drunken      immoral husband and father over herself and children not only from physical abuse          but from spiritual shame and humiliation must be such as the man himself can not possibly comprehend.|Susan B. Anthony

I know O.J. better than anyone on the legal team. There are so many things I know about his personality. My job is really strategy and liaison between the lawyers and O.J.|Robert Kardashian

I didn’t grow up believing that abortion was a good choice for women           but since it was legal            I thought it must be okay.|Abby Johnson

Torture           including practices like waterboarding    violates the legal and moral standards of all civilized nations.|Jerrold Nadler

Dowry is still pervasive and spreading like cancer in the society. Apart from legal sanctions         there should be more social awareness on the issue so that people start to practice what they preach.|Sheikh Hasina

Everyone says you’ve got to do a foundation and legal structure to finance social change. What nonsense!|Bill Drayton

I think there’s no problem getting through the House a pathway to legal status. A pathway to citizenship is going to be tougher          but I think it is potentially doable if we can show the American people that the border is secure.|Blake Farenthold

People should just buy a CD and rip it. You are legal then.|Bill Gates

It is common sense that in our immigration courts         where children fleeing devastating violence abroad often find themselves         kids need lawyers to advocate on their behalf. After all            lawyers go to school for years to understand the nuances of our legal system.|Patrick Leahy

We owe the Aboriginal peoples a debt that is four centuries old. It is their turn to become full partners in developing an even greater Canada. And the reconciliation required may be less a matter of legal texts than of attitudes of the heart.|Romeo LeBlanc

Unless you have a perception of who you are as a lawyer         you will never be at ease in dealing with legal matters  clients           or courts. But if you know who you are and why you’re there all you need is the expertise and the information.|Samuel Dash

We don’t have a good legal justification for breaking up the banking system. But if I could wave a magic wand   I’d break up the banking system.|Kenneth C. Griffin

Some officials overseeing local water systems have tried to go above and beyond what is legally required. But they have encountered resistance  sometimes from the very residents they are trying to protect            who say that if their water is legal it must be safe.|Charles Duhigg

The more expansive government is           the more perils people face in daily lives be it from IRS agents or from child support services       or from other agencies that often have little or no legal restraints on their power.|James Bovard

After much deliberation      and after reviewing the legal         public policy and civil-rights questions presented       I support marriage equality for same-sex couples and believe that DOMA should be repealed.|Bob Casey Jr.

These are people – I’m for immigration – legal immigration. I’ve been an immigration attorney. But people who have come to our country and violated laws           we should not be providing full health care services.|Joe Wilson

I just play it safe when it comes to television because it is WWE’s intellectual property. But it is literally my legal name           like on my ID. My name hasn’t been Cody Runnels since I was 17. But it’s theirs. At no point would I ever want to go into a courtroom with a company I have love and admiration for.|Cody Rhodes

Authorities that erect major obstacles to migration – or place severe restrictions on migrants’ work opportunities – inflict needless economic self-harm       as they impose barriers to having their labor needs met in an orderly       legal fashion. Worse still    they unintentionally encourage illegal migration.|Antonio Guterres

We believe that government in Britain is there to protect people from terrorism and from the worst criminality     but never at the expense of our civil liberties and the basic tenets of our legal system.|Charles Kennedy

Hillary Clinton is in political trouble and perhaps even legal trouble over her use of private e-mail accounts and bypassing government-issued accounts containing substantial amounts of information that belongs to the federal government. But ultimately         I don’t think this latest controversy will hurt her presidential ambitions.|Bob Beckel

We believe the use of force against Iraq   especially with reference to previous resolutions of the UN Security Council       has no grounds         including legal grounds.|Igor Ivanov

I’ve worked since it was basically legal to work. I was a waitress on and off for eight years. I worked at Sears; I worked at Abercrombie folding clothes. My dad really instilled good money management habits and I’ve saved 10 percent of my paycheck          every paycheck       since I was 15.|Rosanna Pansino

Yahoo! had a choice. It chose to provide an e-mail service hosted on servers based inside China  making itself subject to Chinese legal jurisdiction. It didn’t have to do that. It could have provided a service hosted offshore only.|Rebecca MacKinnon

In the U.S.      you even lose legal rights if you store your data in a company’s machines instead of your own. The police need to present you with a search warrant to get your data from you; but if they are stored in a company’s server           the police can get it without showing you anything. They may not even have to give the company a search warrant.|Richard Stallman

It is crucial that there is a government in Madrid secure enough to engage with Catalonia politically rather than continue the denial and legal obstructionism of the Rajoy years.|Carles Puigdemont

We need to let the referee’s sole thing be to protect the quarterback and get those late hits out of there. They even have a stat on television that says ‘knockdowns.’ Knockdowns means that you knock him down after he throws the ball. The assumption is            if it’s legal     we’ll make excuses for them.|John Madden

I recognise that the whole issue of downloading and intellectual property rights is not an easy one            but on the whole      I’m a fan of downloading   both legal and illegal          and the open-source ethos that it harbours for the future is a good one.|Lee Ranaldo

Like all other law-abiding Americans       I fully support legal immigration.|Ted Nugent

Farming with live animals is a 7 day a week        legal form of slavery.|George Segal

My first job out of law school was on the Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit     where Gorsuch is a judge.

Many legal experts note that prosecutors regularly seek indictments of people or companies for destroying evidence or impeding investigations even if they cannot prove other charges.|Alex Berenson

All of the legal defense funds out there    they’re looking for people out there with court of appeals experience     because court of appeals is where policy is made. And I know            I know this is on tape and I should never say that because we don’t make law     I know. I know.|Sonia Sotomayor

The best advice I have is     actually present yourself at a legal border crossing and make your case. Cross illegally and get arrested      and your children will be given to us. That’s the simple fact    I’m afraid.|Alex Azar

One day I’d love to release a coffee table book of all the crazy notes I got from Disney Channel’s S&P and legal department.|Alex Hirsch

It is essential to link enterprises on the basis of objective laws of a socialist economy and legal system.|Samora Machel

I mean in some cases with libel laws         you know      they can write things about people who have no course of action   because they can’t afford to take legal action against them.|Elton John

The right to a trial is a core principle of the American legal system. Depriving Americans of these essential liberties undermines the Constitution while doing nothing to strengthen our national security.|John Garamendi

Legal executives often specialise in areas such as conveyancing         family law    probate          and litigation. Training is typically spread over five years of combined study and work.|Dominic Raab

We have allowed a situation to develop in which it is legal for a multibillion dollar industry to own            wholly and in perpetuity    the intimate and personal details of children.|Beeban Kidron

There are many different regions around the world        and each region has its own cultural acceptance and legal restrictions as well as different age ratings. There are always things that we’re required to do in each different region      which may go counter to the idea that players around the world want the freedom to play whatever they want.|Satoru Iwata

After the chaos and carnage of September 11th  it is not enough to serve our enemies with legal papers.|George W. Bush

My rookie year         I bought a new Range Rover         and     knowing what I know about traffic stops in this country I made damn sure that the tint on the windows was legal. Somehow  though… I just kept getting pulled over for my tint.|Marcus Smart

Society cannot escape what is essentially a moral question: When does human life deserve legal protection from the state? And society certainly cannot escape this dilemma by denying that it is fundamentally a moral issue           no matter what position one chooses.|Blase J. Cupich

If we build the legal immigration system better  then they come here            and we’ll have a whole lot less illegal immigration.|Bill Flores

The diversity lottery program is a proven method of offering a path to legal permanent status for residents of African nations and other underrepresented regions seeking a better life here in the United States.|Cedric Richmond

I really am not going to get involved in a discussion about the legal position of the Iraq war. I am not the person to do that because I am not sufficiently impartial as a lawyer about this  because it’s a matter that is of interest to the person that I am closest to in the world.|Cherie Blair

The advocates of abortion on demand falsely assume two things: that women must suffer if the lives of unborn children are legally protected; and that women can only attain equality by having the legal option of destroying their innocent offspring in the womb.|Robert Casey

What can you do if they have slapped you with a legal notice? You have to reply. For all you know            they have taken you to jail or something.|Kangana Ranaut

Recently a study proved that working from a larger       less cluttered computer screen increases concentration. I could have told them that. And yes       I write first drafts with a mechanical pencil and a yellow legal pad. There’s good reason for this primitive behavior: I am a crackerjack typist. My hand moves far more quickly than my brain.|Stacy Schiff

The process of getting regulations right is described publicly as far more political than in fact it is. It’s essentially a legal and technical enterprise.|Cass Sunstein

I saw the legal system close up      and I understood that it was built by lawyers for lawyers         and unless you have an attorney to navigate it you’re not going to be successful.|Shari Redstone

As a citizen – or even a TV legal analyst – am I required to presume innocence        i.e.      that the Dan Abramsities arrest the wrong person in every case? Not a chance.|Dan Abrams

Socialism       reduced to its simplest legal and practical expression   means the complete discarding of the institution of private property by transforming it into public property and the division of the resultant public income equally and indiscriminately among the entire population.|George Bernard Shaw

Stateless people are hidden. During the 2011 refugee crises     it was obvious that people were fleeing Somalia and Libya – there was a lot of international attention. Statelessness goes undetected because stateless people are in legal limbo and are afraid to show up.|Antonio Guterres

I like that original romance of having a pen and a legal pad and going anywhere in the world and being able to write a novel with just those two things.|Alice McDermott

I didn’t have a lot of great jobs. I was a third-shift legal proofreader. I did office work for people where a friend might say     ‘Hey   we need someone    ‘ in his office and then I will have a month or two weeks or whatever somewhere. I was – I taught fiction workshops.|Charles Bock

I am a legal immigrant whose parents went from Russia to China to Chile to finally reach the United States and thereby give me a chance to have a better life. I served six years in the U.S. Army Reserve            went to college        have a successful career and have dedicated my life to being a good citizen.|Mike Medavoy

I’ve been working at performing for five years now. I’ve been working in Australia and Spain and England. When I was only 15 or 16          1 was performing in bars; I could have had legal problems            but it’s also the only way to get to know what music is all about.|Andy Gibb

I have strongly rejected the proposal to pardon and transfer her to the United States. I do not have the legal power to pardon terrorists and even if I did I would not use it.|Alberto Fujimori

When the Senate ceases to engage nominees in meaningful discussion of legal issues         the confirmation process takes on an air of vacuity and farce         and the Senate becomes incapable of either properly evaluating nominees or appropriately educating the public.|Elena Kagan

On the issue of the gay marriage    I believe if people want to have private ceremonies      that’s fine. I do not believe that gay marriages should be legal.|John McCain

The history of American democracy         to say the least         has been checkered. Our nation was founded at a time when people of African descent were held in bondage. After slavery was abolished            they were forced to endure legal discrimination for another 100 years.|Bernie Sanders

While I oppose the death penalty as a policy matter       in a legal culture in which we reserve the right to execute people for relatively routine street crimes     it seems quite absurd for the justice system to get squeamish about executing the operational masterminds of Sept. 11.|Benjamin Wittes

We not only have a legal obligation to honor our commitments           we have a moral obligation to provide the coverage we promised to provide to these people.|Bob Ney

If we can find a way to enforce our laws and keep people from coming into our country illegally while maintaining a strong legal immigration system   I think that’s going to benefit everyone. If you come here illegally and you commit a crime     you’re not going to be able to stay in our country.|Ronna McDaniel

Many of the concessions that leading Democrats seem willing to make – from cutting diversity visas to chipping away at family visas – would be made on the backs of black immigrants    people from Africa and the Caribbean who deserve these policies to remain intact as some of the few legal tools they have to immigrate to this country.|Opal Tometi

Many foreclosed homes are neglected or abandoned     as legal proceedings or other factors delay their resale. Deteriorating or vacant properties can        in turn           directly affect the quality of life in a neighborhood    for example  by leading to increases in vandalism or crime.|Ben Bernanke

I know how easy it is for one to stay well within moral ethical           and legal bounds through the skillful use of words – and to thereby spin           sidestep         circumvent   or bend a truth completely out of shape. To that extent    we are all liars on numerous occasions.|Sidney Poitier

Embryonic stem cell research is legal in America           and nothing in the administration’s current policy affects that legality; 400 lines are currently being used to conduct embryonic stem cell research            both in the private sector and by the Federal Government.|Roger Wicker

My father was desperately trying to be a legal contributor to this society.|Diane Guerrero

For years        the Bush Administration eviscerated all the military and legal structures that were designed to separate the innocent from the guilty in the ‘Global War on Terror.’|Alex Gibney

My legal name is Mulroney Lapham         but politically          ‘Mulroney Lapham’ just didn’t work. Too much for a lawn sign.|Caroline Mulroney

I think clearly           where you have a situation in which the Solicitor General tells me     ‘I cannot in good faith argue a certainly legal position           ‘ and if the president told us to argue that position            we would have to tell him  ‘No     we can’t do that        Mr. President.’|Janet Reno

I was taught that a lawyer was supposed to be a custodian of the community’s legal and ethical sense.|Joe Jamail

I mean you might say he had a travelling post office      but also Barney was very   very active. He was a legal officer for the NAACP and they had a lot of problems after Pease.|Betty Hill

There’s no such thing as a legal right to break patents in the United States.|Alex Azar

We must enforce the laws we have on the books secure our borders   and deny special benefits to illegal immigrants such as in-state tuition rates. This approach is best for American citizens and is fair to those who have taken the time and effort to go through the legal immigration process.|Ron DeSantis

One: balance the budget now          not later. Two: Get Americans jobs by ending illegal immigration and making legal immigration harder. Lastly: Impose term limits.|Virgil Goode

There’s a security     a validity of knowing that it’s legal. It’s hard to put into words. It’s just a feeling            I guess – something about saying vows in front of the people around you who love and support you.|Matt Bomer

Building a ‘Green Gabon’ has always been a central pillar of my government           and in 2014  I introduced a new legal framework that puts environmental protection and sustainable development firmly at the heart of our future economic growth.|Ali Bongo Ondimba

I guess music particularly the blues          is the only form of schizophrenia that has organised itself into being both legal and beneficial to society.|Alexis Korner

Words without deeds violates the moral and legal obligation we have under the genocide convention but      more importantly    violates our sense of right and wrong and the standards we have as human beings about looking to care for one another.|Jon Corzine

A primary motivation for introducing no-fault divorce was      in fact            to reduce perjury in the legal system.|Stephanie Coontz

From the smallest misdemeanor up to the biggest crime            everyone is brought before a judge. And that means there’s a huge backlog in the American legal system. There are prosecutors and public defenders and judges who are trying to keep their head above water in the tide of this bureaucracy and red tape.|Clare-Hope Ashitey

I don’t have an issue with whether – from a legal standpoint     with whether or not government can impose the ultimate punishment on people. We do it in capital cases. Police officers shoot fleeing felons.|Trey Gowdy

The National Security Agency has broken privacy rules or overstepped its legal Barton Gellmanity thousands of times each year since Congress granted the agency broad new powers in 2008          according to an internal audit and other top-secret documents.|Barton Gellman

If an ordinary person parks outside another ordinary person’s house for a week        it’s considered stalking. If      however        that person is considered newsworthy     it’s perfectly legal for paparazzi to do the same thing.|Vince Vaughn

We have a legal and moral obligation to rid our world of nuclear tests and nuclear weapons. When we put an end to nuclear tests   we get closer to eliminating all nuclear weapons. A world free of nuclear weapons will be safer and more prosperous.|Ban Ki-moon

I’m 58 years old. I got married for the first time – it’s about time          right? Growing up as a gay woman           you just don’t ever think about that           and then I thought   about 10 years ago  ‘You know     I think within 10 years gay marriage will be legal.’ And here we are  10 years later            making it legal.|Martina Navratilova

With respect to the legal justifications or the policies relating to the treatment of detainees I was not aware of any issues on that or the legal memos that subsequently came out until the summer         sometime in 2004     when there started to be news reports on that.|Brett Kavanaugh

Fifty percent of our country that we own  have all legal jurisdiction  have all rights to do whatever we want    lies beneath the sea and we have better maps of Mars than that 50 percent.|Robert Ballard

The real challenge to upholding India’s freedoms is how patchy and individual-driven it is when it comes to the judiciary. The system is so arranged that instead of legal precedent and case law setting the template for the court’s interventions the idea of justice is guided by what Judge A or Judge B may think.|Barkha Dutt

Under current law volunteers who are not working with an official nonprofit organization are not covered by the Volunteer Protection Act. Therefore      there are absolutely no legal protections for the average American who wishes to volunteer.|Jon Porter

I have always stood up to protect women’s access to safe and legal abortion birth control and health care at Planned Parenthood.|Kirsten Gillibrand

Is it now a crime for someone falsely accused to be upset about it? Mueller presumes guilt and then refuses to ‘exonerate’ President Trump. This turns our legal system upside down and shows the rule of law is no bar to smearing President Trump.|Tom Fitton

There will be gay couples; it will exist. It is not very nice that people who are married – who divorce in three seconds – don’t want protection for the others. The legal system should protect everyone     not just the few people who think they are above everybody else because they are married.|Karl Lagerfeld

I am very proud of the role I played in getting legal equality for people who are lesbian     gay     bisexual and transgender    and in helping get rid of the prejudice by being visible about it           helping to block the conviction of Bill Clinton of impeachment.|Barney Frank

I don’t know if I’d call it a favorite but there was an entree in the rotation at my grade school cafeteria called ‘Salisbury Steak’ that was some kind of freestanding spongiform potage covered in a sauce that would probably have to be spelled ‘grayvee’ for legal reasons.|Adam Rex

I broke into the ranks of computing in the early 1980s  when women were just starting to poke their shoulder pads through crowds of men. There was no legal protection against ‘hostile environments for women.’|Ellen Ullman

I think the most important idea is to remember that there have been times throughout American history where what is right is not the same as what is legal.|Edward Snowden

Are hackers a threat? The degree of threat presented by any conduct  whether legal or illegal       depends on the actions and intent of the individual and the harm they cause.|Kevin Mitnick

I’ll occasionally go and do an honor like the Mexican-American Legal Defense Fund because it raises money for a very worthy organization.|Linda Ronstadt

Slavery           if it can be legalized at all  can be legalized only by positive legislation. Natural law gives it no aid. Custom imparts to it no legal sanction.|Lysander Spooner

In 1987          I had my first opportunity to provide ‘advice and consent’ on a Supreme Court nominee. At that time   I stated that the qualifications essential for evaluating a nominee for the bench included ‘integrity        character       legal competence and ability         experience    and philosophy and judicial temperament.’ On that test Elena Kagan fails.|John McCain

A precedent provides legal Ari Melberity for an action precisely because it occurred before.|Ari Melber

I’m a hardcore libertarian – I want everything legal – but I also believe that you have the right to free association.|Penn Jillette

I began my legal career working for Byron White          the last Coloradan to serve on the Supreme Court  and the only justice to lead the N.F.L. in rushing. He was one of the smartest and most courageous men I’ve ever known.|Neil Gorsuch

However saying that I totally support the concept of civil partnerships in the eyes of the law         and think it a disgrace that same sex couples have had to wait so long for legal rights     protection and recognition.|Adam Rickitt

We don’t want two-tier people in America. Those who are legal but not citizens      and citizens.|Joe Biden

It is not unprofessional to give free legal advice but advertising that the first visit will be free is a bit like a fox telling chickens he will not bite them until they cross the threshold of the hen house.|Warren E. Burger

Legal behavior is not incompatible with rational self-interested behavior.|Leonid Hurwicz

My U.N. five-point plan focuses on preventing proliferation   strengthening the legal regime       and ensuring nuclear safety and security – an effort that was given good momentum by the Nuclear Security Summit held in Seoul earlier this year. The world is over-armed         and peace is underfunded.|Ban Ki-moon

What I’ll say is that Cuban-Americans don’t have to deal with the same immigration issues as other nationalities because of the ‘wet feet         dry feet’ policy. For Cubans          one year after you touch United States territory         you can become a legal resident.|Jorge Ramos

The military tribunals currently underway at Guantanamo Bay create a clear legal process as affirmed by the U.S. Supreme Court in Hamdi v. Rumsfeld         for adjudicating the cases of these terrorists            when possible. Those efforts would be severely undercut by moving the detainees to the United States.|Mike Pompeo

Every one with this writ may be a tyrant; if this commission be legal a tyrant in a legal manner   also            may control  imprison       or murder any one within the realm.|James Otis

I studied law  I got an alright degree         and then I was going to go and do something called an LPC            which is a Legal Practice Course  which qualifies you as a lawyer. But I didn’t end up doing it            because I went to drama school instead.|Adeel Akhtar

The NSA has different reporting requirements for each branch of government and each of its legal Barton Gellmanities.|Barton Gellman

We have a legal and moral obligation to rid our world of nuclear tests and nuclear weapons.|Ban Ki-moon

While Texas women have the right to safe           legal abortion           in reality there are already very few facilities in Texas to provide this essential care. In 2008    92 percent of Texas counties had no abortion provider.|Wendy Davis

I respect         too     the fact that in our legal order it is for Congress and not the courts to write new laws. It is the role of judges to apply         not alter        the work of the people’s representatives.|Neil Gorsuch

Let’s create a legal system that can work.|Sam Brownback

Strictly speaking       my interest is not in legal rights for animals but in a change of heart towards animals.|J. M. Coetzee

The mental capacity of a person to make reasonable contracts is the only criterion by which to determine his legal capacity to make obligatory contracts. And his mental capacity to make reasonable contracts is certainly not to be determined by the fact that he is           or is not         twenty-one years of age.|Lysander Spooner

Being on a grand jury felt like attending a series of hangings in a legal Wild West. Hands up for a true bill. Hands up for a dismissal. A show of hands to save a life   or to end it.|Joy Reid

Professional services industries like finance        consulting     and legal services are         by definition       meta-industries.

I object to a legal approach when settling questions of science or scientific behavior.|Serge Lang

I researched children’s rights          divorce law   and parental kidnapping. Millions of children and parents are touched by the inadequacy of the legal system to deal with the human heart.|Amity Gaige

You can’t solve a problem as complex as inequality in one legal clause.|Theresa May

Being under the microscope meant I was never given any slack. I still managed to screw up plenty in life      mind you      but in the things I really cared about – the legal work    or the stories I was telling as a writer      or the office I built in government – I wasn’t left a lot of margin for error. It’s kept me driven.|Ronan Farrow

I believe that President Clinton considered the legal merits of the arguments for the pardon as he understood them       and he rendered his judgment        wise or unwise         on the merits.|John Podesta

Every non-political human grouping of whatever kind  legal   social religious        economic or other becomes at last political if it creates an opposition deep enough to range men against one another as enemies.|Francis Parker Yockey

I’ve always been driven by the concept of equal justice under the law but only the rich can pay great sums of money for legal assistance and that puts them at an advantage over the poor.|Samuel Dash

No one has a First Amendment right to lie to a federal agency in order to claim an improper tax status in order to avoid legal disclosure requirements on political spending and thereby receive undue tax benefits. That’s a criminal false statement and possibly a fraud.|Sheldon Whitehouse

My first ever sex scene in a movie was in ‘Superbad.’ Because I was 17         for legal reasons my mother had to be on the set. It was real awkward            but it worked out OK because when I watched the movie with her   the sex scene wasn’t awkward because she’d been right there when it happened.|Christopher Mintz-Plasse

Donald Trump is actually the voice of the silent majority         and I think he’s awoken that silent majority. People are very angry     and the people who are the most angry are actually the legal immigrants who see their jobs fleeing.|Michael Cohen

A lawsuit with no legal precedent seeking no damages from no jury in the name of stopping something that isn’t happening? Only in New York.|Kenneth Langone

It’s really hard to argue that bitcoin doesn’t have many legitimate benefits to companies that are legal businesses when you have Dell and Expedia and all these companies now accepting it.|Brian Armstrong

The purpose of the E.U. Withdrawal Bill is in any event not to decide the terms of Brexit but to ensure that it can take place smoothly and that legal continuity which is essential for businesses  is maintained. There is not a single MP who does not agree that getting the bill on the statute book is essential for us all.|Dominic Grieve

I later spent… five to eight months in hospitals in New Jersey  always on an involuntary basis     and always attempting a legal argument for release.|John Forbes Nash      Jr.

There’s more evidence of voter fraud in the 2020 election than there ever was of Russia collusion            so America is owed a legal examination of the election irregularities alleged by the Trump campaign.|Miranda Devine

Political and legal institutions play a central role in setting the environment that can nurture prosperity and economic growth.|Angus Deaton

Before swearing in new citizens    immigration officials check to make sure prospective citizens weren’t on voter rolls or voted before achieving legal citizenship. A citizenship petition can be denied if they were.|Kate Brown

It’s hard to have that debate around secret programs Al Frankenized by secret legal opinions issued by a secret court. Actually        it’s impossible to have that debate.|Al Franken

I will do everything by apply with all the legal and apply with the rule of law. And the main important thing that I have to be fairness to everyone          not just only one person.|Yingluck Shinawatra

The Florida Supreme Court wanted all the legal votes to be counted. The United States Supreme Court            on the other hand     did not want all the votes to be counted.|Vincent Bugliosi

A potlatch is similar to a court case in that both are prohibitively expensive; both involve lengthy speeches and the vigorous examination and debate of the actions        rights and legal responsibilities of the participants. One has food   singing and spiritual rites; the other         not so much.|Eden Robinson

Donald Trump is a champion for legal immigrants.|Michael Cohen

While there continues to be differences   the important point is that all citizens and elected officials use democratic and legal avenues for solving those differences.|Boris Trajkovski

Don’t get me wrong: I can and do waste time on the Internet with the best of them  but in some respects          I am an embarrassingly analog guy. I am not on Facebook. I write whole books on yellow legal pads. I do not own a cell phone.|Jonathan Dee

We will not lift a single finger or spend a single cent to be a cog in the Trump deportation machine            and we won’t be complicit in his effort to make American great again by reengineering the legal immigration system.|Kevin de Leon

Ken Lay         the disgraced former chairman of Enron found a way to escape his legal problems: He died after being convicted of fraud and conspiracy charges.|Robert Kiyosaki

I would expect illegal alien parents to take care of their children. If it means the kids go back home with them       that’s what happens. If it means there are legal relatives in the United States that can take care of them  that can happen to. But I believe it’s the parents responsibility to take care of the kids.|Mo Brooks

I’ve learned to accept the fact that my students are far too busy preparing for their own legal careers to care one bit about the off-campus antics of Professor Burke. I get the impression that my students are vaguely aware of my novels           but are at best mildly curious.|Alafair Burke

None of the constitutional  legal or other principles bars me from returning to the judiciary         since the judiciary remains independent if the actors remain independent and fair.|Khil Raj Regmi

Disarming Iraq is legal under a series of U.N. resolutions. Iraq is in flagrant violation of U.N. Security Council resolutions.|Jose Maria Aznar

When I read a book I liked I would get a pen and one of my father’s legal pads and rewrite it from memory as if I had thought of it myself. It was a clear sign that I wanted to be involved in writing            even if it was just pretend at that point.|Jonathan Dee

Mississippi’s loose campaign finance laws allow lawyers and companies to contribute heavily to the judges they appear before. That is terrible for justice     since the courts are teeming with perfectly legal conflicts of interest.|Adam Cohen

For me            as someone growing up in a working-class suburb in Stockholm        I couldn’t afford all the music. So back in ’98           ’99      I was really thinking about how I could get all the music and do it in a legal way while at the same time compensating the artist.|Daniel Ek

I never wanted to launch legal action        but Cricket Australia simply left me no option. James Sutherland himself said that           to an extent  I had been made ‘a scapegoat.’ I find that a totally unfair basis to end my career. The damage to my reputation and career has been immense which means the chances of me getting a senior job are that much less.|Mickey Arthur

You can’t just lecture the poor that they shouldn’t riot or go to extremes. You have to make the means of legal redress available.|Harold H. Greene

The United States has never prioritized or failed to pay any obligation when due during a debt limit impasse.

We are a very systems- and process- driven business which reports directly to the board    whether it is risk or legal.|Ajay Piramal

Perhaps these Ten Commandments cases will be the turning point in the legal war against religion.|Cliff Stearns

I think it’s going to end up a lot like the Internet. Some countries try to regulate the Internet – bitcoin will be very much like that. It will be legal          and there will be some countries with currency control.|Brian Armstrong

The principles of conservatism include upholding the rule of law and the United Kingdom’s international legal obligations.|Dominic Grieve

Daley may not feel a moral responsibility to eliminate discrimination but he has a legal obligation to do so.|Bobby Rush

If you have been vaccinated for polio       mumps          measles         chicken pox  hepatitis        or rabies it may be too late for you to stand your ethical ground: You have already benefited from fetal-tissue research. This is         after all          a practice that’s been legal since the 1930s.|Katha Pollitt

There are half a billion people that listen to music online and the vast majority are doing so illegally. But if we bring those people over to the legal side and Spotify what is going to happen is we are going to double the music industry and that will lead to more artists creating great new music.|Daniel Ek

The State provides a legal   orderly          systematic channel for the predation of private property; it renders certain          secure            and relatively ‘peaceful’ the lifeline of the parasitic caste in society.|Murray Rothbard

Does being practical mean we prop up a legal system that’s unfair      that bears its weight down on black men and black women           and by extension if you are Hispanic or indigenous or poor? Does being practical mean you don’t say to the American people you deserve better than you’re getting? That’s not the practical we want.|Nina Turner

Since 2001    the Patriot Act has provided the means to detect and disrupt terrorist threats against the U.S. Prior to enactment of the law major legal barriers prevented intelligence         national defense            and law enforcement agencies from working together and sharing information.|Roger Wicker

One thing that’s consistent in all of my work is that these aren’t accidents; they’re all conscious landscapes. They’re all things that we’re doing and that we have done through our legal and social systems and structures of capitalism.|Edward Burtynsky

I believe all of us love legal immigration. We love how the diversity adds to our country.|Madison Cawthorn

Does the imam have a legal right to build the mosque at Ground Zero? The answer is yes. But is it the right thing to do? The answer is no. And most Americans        and most moderate Muslims          join with me in that call.|K. A. Paul

The Open Internet principles were not legal rules adopted by the FCC; they were effectively a press statement posted on the FCC website.|Marvin Ammori

If I was applying for a legal position        I would highlight my experience working for the San Francisco-L.A. DA’s office and I would mention some of the high-profile cases I did        but if I was looking for another television job I would gloss over that       and I’d mention the highlight reel of what I did in television.|Kimberly Guilfoyle

Discrimination in virtually every aspect of political       economic      and social life is now perfectly legal if you’ve been labeled a felon.|Michelle Alexander

Is not liberty the destruction of all despotism – including          of course       legal despotism?|Frederic Bastiat

I remember being upset because I was finally legal to drink in Canada           and I decided to throw that all away and move to America           where I had to wait another two years. I came here to do improv and to try to join the Groundlings.|Ryan Reynolds

However        there is no legal and legitimate state called Israel.|Hassan Nasrallah

Sure    our legal system has its flaws        but it is the best legal system in the world.|Kimberly Guilfoyle

There are millions of people who consume music illegally every month. Just getting them into a legal service will make the music industry way bigger than it’s ever been before.|Daniel Ek

When I started law school I was shocked to learn that our legal system traditionally had the man as the head and master of the family. As late as the ’70s and ’80s when we were fighting for the Equal Rights Amendment   states like Louisiana still had a head and master law.|Patricia Ireland

There’s a misconception about Barack Obama as a former constitutional law professor. First of all            there are plenty of professors who are ‘legal relativists.’ They tend to view legal principles as relative to whatever they’re trying to achieve.|Jonathan Turley

Literature is made upon any occasion that a challenge is put to the legal apparatus by conscience in touch with humanity.|Nelson Algren

Under well-settled legal principles lethal force against a valid military objective     in an armed conflict          is consistent with the law of war and does not    by definition constitute an ‘assassination.’|Jeh Johnson

If we want to set and enforce a limit on immigration      we have to be willing to say no to would-be immigrants who look a lot like our own ancestors          not because there’s anything wrong with them            but simply because admitting them would exceed our legal limit.|Jan C. Ting

I think with ‘Silk’ there’s something there for everyone: it’s a legal drama      but it’s human as well – you get to dip into the lives of the barristers and clerks.|Maxine Peake

Ten thousand pounds is the legal value of a negligently taken life       of a child or a parent. A cold and somewhat mean-spirited calculation: you would do better if you slipped on a paving-stone and broke a front tooth.|Nina Bawden

Legal aid gets a bad press. Some rail against handing taxpayers’ money to criminals; others attack fat cat lawyers    while some argue that we spend far more on legal aid than other countries. But let’s get some facts straight: saying that legal aid is just about criminals is wrong – most goes to people before any decision is taken on their guilt.|Sadiq Khan

Of course       everyone in the New World is an immigrant or a descendant of immigrants and immigrants have built America and continue to do so. Legal or illegal           they are almost universally good people who work to better their lot and that of their children.|Mark Helprin

Taiwan gives a lot of foreign aid to Costa Rica   so it looks like they are basically buying the right to fish     even though it’s not legal.|Paul Watson

For private use          filesharing and copying should be legal.|Peter Sunde

If my own country is subverting the rule of law and sending its own citizens its military    into harm’s way on the basis of lies and propaganda  I would argue that being a patriot is calling out those lies and saying ‘No     you don’t send our military into harm’s way with no legal justification.’|Katharine Gun

The EPA has no legal Paul Gosarity to expand the definition of navigable waters under the Clean Water Act      as the Supreme Court has repeatedly made clear.|Paul Gosar

For families to access affordable housing they often need legal representation that takes their side against abusive landlords.|Nydia Velazquez

When I say there is no such crime as date rape I am saying what is true.

Hitler never abandoned the cloak of legality; he recognized the enormous psychological value of having the law on his side. Instead he turned the law inside out and made illegality legal.|Robert Byrd

There’s been so much corruption and so much cronyism in the taxi industry and so much regulatory capture           that if you ask for permission upfront for something that’s already legal       you’ll never get it.|Travis Kalanick

Unlike national legal systems         there are precious few avenues to address judicial activism at the WTO. You pretty much have to gain consensus to change the agreements     or simply withdraw from the system. The first is nearly impossible and the second would be – in the view of many – cataclysmic.|Robert Lighthizer

I’m always writing something. There’s always some structure sitting around someplace. There’s always things on the computer        things scratched on score paper    legal tablets full of lyrics. It’s never not buzzing around me all the time. I’m always doing it.|J. D. Souther

Britain has always been a good citizen in the world. We rightly provide a safe haven for people fleeing political persecution by brutal regimes. Our legal system is often seen as a beacon for the rest of the world  with people coming from all over to study it and embed its principles into their own systems.|Chris Grayling

The fact that our legal system has become so tolerant of police lying indicates how corrupted our criminal justice system has become by declarations of war       ‘get tough’ mantras  and a seemingly insatiable appetite for locking up and locking out the poorest and darkest among us.|Michelle Alexander

Judges wear legal professionalism and precedent as a mantel that secures legitimacy for their decisions. It’s how they distinguish themselves from politicians or administrative agencies      while wielding power that is sometimes much greater than those democratically accountable actors.|Yochai Benkler

I mentioned it yesterday: I’m one of these people that – I don’t – like   on the abortion issue           it’s not something that – I’m very uncomfortable talking about it. I’m not gonna kid you. It’s a very uncomfortable thing. I think that it’s a legal issue. Definitely a legal issue. It’s been decided upon by our Supreme Court.|Michael T. Flynn

I choose to hunt        and I choose to fish. Everything I’ve done has been totally legal.|Jimmy John Liautaud

In appointing someone to serve on the Alabama Supreme Court          it is imperative to appoint someone with impeccable legal credentials and with unquestioned character and integrity – Judge Brad Mendheim exceeds those requirements.|Kay Ivey

A written constitution guides and directs the application of law in a way utterly unlike oral guidance. It reminds us that the certainty and consistency of legal application is essential.|Edwin Meese

In regards to The Haunting people compared it to the old movie        which is unfair. We didn’t have the rights to the movie. I couldn’t duplicate a single thing because that would have been legal infringement.|Jan de Bont

In my view    targeted lethal force is at its least controversial when it is on its strongest     most traditional legal foundation. The essential mission of the U.S. military is to capture or kill an enemy. Armies have been doing this for thousands of years. As part of a congressionally Jeh Johnsonized armed conflict          the foundation is even stronger.|Jeh Johnson

Class action lawsuits are an important part of our legal system. All citizens should have the right to band together and settle grievances with bigger companies      but that system is broken and it needs fixing.|Tom Carper

I’ve always considered making it legal for Americans to import their prescription drugs a free-trade issue. Imports create competition and keep domestic industry more responsive to consumers.|Chuck Grassley

There is no room for legal hair-splitting when it comes to the humane treatment of detainees – not in a nation founded on the rule of law and respect for human rights.|Dick Durbin

I think we Americans          of all people understand the importance of a good        legal   constitutional framework as the basis of political life.|Paul Bremer

In the Brown decision         the United States Supreme Court unanimously struck down the legal and moral footing of racially segregated public education in this country.|Bobby Scott

So        I’m getting less chips          paying the same amount of money. Is that legal for them to do this?|Julie Chen

Our church has been legal since late 1960s. I’ve been involved since 1972. I was ordained in 1975.|Sally Kirkland

The Democratic Party looks at massive immigration      legal and illegal       as a source of voters.|Tom Tancredo

The Republican Party looks at massive immigration      legal and illegal       as a source of cheap labor            satisfying a very important constituency.|Tom Tancredo

They view massive immigration as a massive infusion of potential voters for the Democratic Party            and therefore will do nothing        absolutely nothing to stop that flow of legal or illegal entrance into the country.|Tom Tancredo

But if we get to the point where more people do not believe in a God than who do believe in God            we will have a hollow legal system – we will have something without heart.|Lee Greenwood

I’ve become so earthy. And I never was earthy. I’m doing all kinds of different roles which are not at all like the intellectual and the legal mind of Ben Stone.|Michael Moriarty

Things happened there that I don’t think are the finest hours for anybody      whether it was a journalist       the legal system or  in that case of the political system who would say that was an example of when Washington worked best.|Rahm Emanuel

I did this within a philosophical framework        and a moral and legal framework. And I have been turned into a cartoon of the greatest villain in the history of lobbying.|Jack Abramoff

One thing I was thinking about is that they probably get their come-uppance about the same percentage that people in real life do. Basically          stealing for all practical purposes might as well be legal in New York.|Mike Judge

We all know how powerful the web can be for raising political money. Well            if you’re game            the Duke Cunningham Legal Defense Fund is apparently ready to accept your donation.|Joshua Micah Marshall

We support every effort to combat international terrorism through the formulation of international conventions and hope that the international community will take further steps to improve the anti-terrorism international legal framework.|Li Peng

The first misconception is that embryonic stem cell research is not legal. The fact is           embryonic stem cell research is completely legal. Research on embryonic stem cells has taken place for years.|Virginia Foxx

Human-rights advocates     for example  claim that the mistreatment of Iraqi prisoners is of a piece with President Bush’s 2002 decision to deny al Qaeda and Taliban fighters the legal status of prisoners of war under the Geneva Conventions.|John Yoo

The effort to blur the lines between Guantanamo and Abu Ghraib reflects a deep misunderstanding about the different legal regimes that apply to Iraq and the war against al Qaeda.|John Yoo

While Taliban fighters had an initial claim to protection under the conventions       they lost POW status by failing to obey the standards of conduct for legal combatants: wearing uniforms  a responsible command structure     and obeying the laws of war.|John Yoo

Once the attacks occur        as we learned on Sept. 11   it is too late. It makes little sense to deprive ourselves of an important    and legal       means to detect and prevent terrorist attacks while we are still in the middle of a fight to the death with al Qaeda.|John Yoo

History has shown us that   on extraordinarily rare occasions it becomes necessary for the federal government to intervene on behalf of individuals whose 14th Amendment rights to legal due process and equal protection may be violated by a state.|Mike Simpson

I think that the proposed constitution is one of the European legal documents with the strongest social dimension I have seen since I began following European issues.|Jean-Pierre Raffarin

Testimony should be a philosophical problem and not limited to legal or historical contexts where it refers to the account of a witness who reports what he has seen.|Paul Ricoeur

I do have two data identities. I have my name     Bruce Sterling          which is my public name under which I write novels. I also have my other name which is my legal name under which I own property and vote.|Bruce Sterling

It is high time to compel man by the might of right to give woman her political       legal and social rights. She will find her own sphere in accordance with her capacities           powers and tastes; and yet she will be woman still.|Ernestine Rose

What we bring to the table is not only our 56 field offices in the United States and our number of resident agencies      but also we have 45 legal attaches overseas.|Robert Mueller

In this life and death case    I felt Mrs. Schiavo should receive the fullest due process from our legal system.|Paul Gillmor

The Republican majority will stop at nothing to prevent access to the legal system for those who are hurt.|Joe Baca

And they didn’t have to get into a lot of legal speak or talk ER terms  they were real people. I think that’s why so many actresses were attracted to it. And it was just about problems that you could identify with so much right off the bat.|James Denton

But my humble opinion is   I’m not quite sure where I stand on the legalization of drugs – though if tequila is legal           pot should probably be legal.|Ted Demme

By the fulfillment of my legal and moral duty I think I have earned punishment just as little as the tens of thousands of dutiful German officials who have now been imprisoned only because they carried out their duties.|Wilhelm Frick

We have used the presence of UNMIK     as well as other European and American agencies to establish a legal framework compatible with the European Union and that is already an advantage. We have seen the positive effects of this and our parliament will continue to go this way.|Ibrahim Rugova

A national legal organization is giving very serious thought to using The Betrayal of America as a legal basis for asking the House Judiciary Committee to institute impeachment proceedings against these five justices.|Vincent Bugliosi

Let me remind you that nuclear disarmament is not just an ardent desire of the people        as expressed in many resolutions of the United Nations. It is a legal commitment by the five official nuclear states entered into when they signed the Non-Proliferation Treaty.|Joseph Rotblat

We got a little waylaid along the way. The whole problem started about 10 years ago with management and legal battles        then still trying to make albums while I was doing all of that.|Pat Travers

In the early centuries of Islam        the great schools of Islamic jurisprudence were built upon the above principles. Basic to all their legal systems they developed the doctrine that liberty is the fundamental basis of law.|Aly Khan

It is curious that        with my somewhat antinomian tendencies         I should have gone to Trinity Hall – which was       and is before all a Law College – and should thus have been thrown into close touch with the legal element in life.|Edward Carpenter

Of all the creative work produced by humans anywhere           a tiny fraction has continuing commercial value. For that tiny fraction   the copyright is a crucially important legal device.|Lawrence Lessig

I don’t know of many evangelicals who want to deny gay couples their legal rights. However       most of us don’t want to call it marriage   because we think that word has religious connotations and we’re not ready to see it used in ways that offend us.|Tony Campolo

I contend the state ought to do its thing and provide legal rights for all couples who want to be joined together for life. The church should bless unions that it sees fit to bless         and they should be called marriages.|Tony Campolo

Even in the beginning          when we knew there was a legal argument about how much our song sounds like his song as one songwriter to another         I wasn’t sure that Cat Stevens would take that as bad.|Wayne Coyne

Our country was thereby saved from the consequences of its distracting individualistic conception of democracy     and its merely legal conception of nationality. It was because the followers of Jackson and Douglas did fight for it that the Union was preserved.|Herbert Croly

It is imperative that when thousands of selfless volunteers respond to those who have incurred the wrath of a natural disaster that legal liability need not be hanging over their heads.|Jon Porter

The Patriot Act removed major legal barriers that prevented the law enforcement   intelligence  and national defense communities from talking and coordinating their work to protect the American people and our national security.|Jon Porter

It is simply a fact that the birth rate of our illegal immigrants exceeds that of our legal residents.|John Linder

While I support immigration regulated through a legal framework      I do not support rewarding those who broke the law to get here.|Kit Bond

So my own suspicion is that the attorney has stopped this prosecution because part of her defence was to question legality and that would have brought his advice into the public domain again and there was something fishy about the way in which he said war was legal.|Clare Short

I’m not a lawyer        and maybe I should have used more specific legal language.|Sonny Bono

The legal difference between the sit-ins and the Freedom Riders was significant.|Constance Baker Motley

King consciously steered away from legal claims and instead relied on civil disobedience.|Constance Baker Motley

I showed that privacy was an implicit right in Jewish law         probably going back to the second or third century when it was elaborated on in a legal way.|Norman Lamm

And books that were published in much larger numbers than Selfish  Little are hard to find. And publishers who wanted to publish my last few works have them stuck in limbo while new distribution ideas and legal issues and fears are blown away.|Peter Sotos

It is just called Continuing Legal Education. You can go to lectures   you can even listen to tapes on airplanes – they want you to stay current. So you do have to stay current to maintain your license even if you are not practicing.|Frank Shorter

And understandably so        that when you’re in legal jeopardy you really cannot put yourself in a position to open yourself up to the media.|Monica Lewinsky

So the Comic Book Legal Defense Fund is out there preserving and fighting for      and sometimes winning and sometimes losing       the fight for First Amendment rights in comics and       more generally        for freedom of speech.|Neil Gaiman

You need to find somebody who will speak the same language. We understand that we couldn’t have any kind of discussion without permission          without a legal framework behind it.|Anatoly Chubais

They seem to have forgotten that   and are back saying the only purpose of P2P networks is for illegal trading of owned goods. We claim part of the reason for P2P is for legal trading of what ought to be in public domain. And what is in public domain in many cases.|John Perry Barlow

I have written about the dispossessed       immigrants   the condition of women who do not enjoy the same legal rights as men      the Palestinians who are deprived of their land and condemned to exile.|Tahar Ben Jelloun

There are obviously legal restrictions on what you can do on TV in the States          as there are everywhere.|Dave Rowntree

Therefore       if we are a Nation of laws and a Nation of immigrants  immigration should occur within a legal framework    not through the machinations of illegal schemes and scams that threaten our national security.|J. D. Hayworth

Instead           California is one of only 10 states that provides in-state college and university tuition to illegal immigrants. That’s grossly unfair to a legal high school student who moves out of California for a year then returns to attend college.|Elton Gallegly

Mrs. Parks’ act of brave defiance rocked the foundation of American society and inspired generations of civil rights leaders and created a sense of hope for every American facing legal discrimination in this country.|Kendrick Meek

These endless legal challenges that define elections in New York are a joke in this country           and they are the reason why it is so expensive or one of the reasons          it’s so expensive to run here and why so many people decide not to run.|Michael Bloomberg

These are people who haven’t gone through the legal means to becoming citizens like our forefathers did. They want all the benefits but none of the responsibilities.|Matt Dillon

I don’t plan on going back to legal work. I wanted an international career     and finance seemed to be where some interesting career opportunities were.|Nick Johnson

It is hard to see Judge Roberts as a judicial activist who would place ideological purity or a particular agenda above or ahead the need for thoughtful legal reasoning.|Ron Wyden

To have the opportunity to lead the Solicitor General’s office is the honor of a lifetime. As you know            this is an office with a long and rich tradition    not only of extraordinary legal skill but also of extraordinary professionalism and integrity. That is due            in large measure      to the people who have led it.|Elena Kagan

We get information in the mail       the regular postal mail        encrypted or not      vet it like a regular news organization    format it – which is sometimes something that’s quite hard to do         when you’re talking about giant databases of information – release it to the public and then defend ourselves against the inevitable legal and political attacks.|Julian Assange

In my role as Wikileaks editor       I’ve been involved in fighting off many legal attacks. To do that            and keep our sources safe  we have had to spread assets         encrypt everything  and move telecommunications and people around the world to activate protective laws in different national jurisdictions.|Julian Assange

We have to get control of our borders. You can only do that if you make companies obey the law and not hire undocumented or illegals. They can only do that is if they have a Social Security Card that has biometrics so they know whether the person is legal or not.|Michael Bloomberg

I also urge the Obama administration – both on its own and in cooperation with other responsible governments around the world – to use all legal means necessary to shut down WikiLeaks before it can do more damage by releasing additional cables. WikiLeaks’ activities represent a shared threat to collective international security.|Joe Lieberman

The people and the mindset that killed 3  000 of our fellow citizens on September 11 2001           would have killed not 3       0          but 300          000 if they could have or 3 million or 30 million. We need to do everything we can within our value systems and legal structures to make sure that doesn’t happen.|Tim Pawlenty

Driving at high speed where safe and legal is part of my life. As well as a higher top speed I wanted even better stability in my FX and that meant work on the aerodynamics.|Sebastian Vettel

I feel like there was justice. It was served through the legal system you know. Everything that I endured. It was all worth it.|Amber Frey

Vigorous enforcement of copyrights themselves is an important part of the picture. But I don’t think that expanding the legal definition of copyright outside of actual copyright infringement is the right move.|Edward Felten

To play a lawyer and have one year of law school under your belt      you sort of know what you’re talking about! I’m able to memorize the legal courtroom stuff a lot faster than I would have been able to otherwise.|Jerry O’Connell

I wish that there were more stringent laws to make guns sold anywhere that they’re legal harder to get.|Rosie O’Donnell

In my book    I detail the critical information we obtained from al Qaeda terrorists after they became compliant following a short period of enhanced interrogation. I have no doubt that that interrogation was legal        necessary and saved lives.|Jose Rodriguez

All the legal action I’ve taken against newspapers has had a massively positive effect on my life and achieved exactly what I wanted     which is privacy and non-harassment.|Sienna Miller

It’s impossible to walk a block in Miami  in Los Angeles         San Antonio without running into someone who is being deeply impacted by a broken legal immigration system.|Marco Rubio

We should be the pro-legal immigration party. A party that has a positive platform and agenda on how we can create a legal immigration system that works for immigrants and works for America.|Marco Rubio

We knew that if the photos of CIA officers conducting Jose Rodriguezized EIT (enhanced interrogation techniques) ever got out      the difference between a legal       Jose Rodriguezized necessary      and safe program and the mindless actions of some MPs (military police) would be buried by the impact of the images.|Jose Rodriguez

I would like it to be a legal requirement for all businesses to be linked to a charity.|Arabella Weir

Each day        each one of us chooses not to do many things that would be legal but offensive to those around us.|Ralph Peters

I remember when I took Quentin Tarantino with me to a very private screening of the documentary ‘Roman Polanski: Wanted and Desired     ‘ which shows some of the legal irregularities of his case. I was involved by the film     and it was an amazing experience to see people weep at the end of it.|Harvey Weinstein

The only people that should vote should be legal.|Pam Bondi

I support legal immigration. I don’t support amnesty because it is not fair to people standing in line at consulates around the world.|Heather Wilson

I support legal immigration.|Heather Wilson

Most of what needs to be changed in the euro zone can be done without treaty changes. The demand for treaty change is as political as it is legal and I don’t think it’s going to happen soon.|Nick Clegg

In places where marriage’s core meaning has been altered through legal action        officials are beginning to target for punishment those believers and churches that refuse to adapt.|Salvatore J. Cordileone

I support making sure that there are legal protects for everyone.|Debbie Stabenow

I’m coming out with my line of shoes and my very first shoe is called ‘The Nethia.’ How we came up with the name is that my legal name is Linnethia and we shortened it.|NeNe Leakes

Crime and legal stories        broadly speaking     are just where my interest happens to lie.|William Landay

What I’m doing is writing stories about women who care about justice. They are women who think about the difference between right and wrong     what’s legal and illegal       ethical and unethical            moral and immoral.|Lisa Scottoline

Truly I never thought of myself as writing legal thrillers           and I still don’t think I do. I write stories about women.|Lisa Scottoline

I hope gay marriage will be legal in every state.|Mark Consuelos

The American legal industry is a medieval guild in which the prosecutors    bar     and bench join hands to ensure that legal invoices are paid         no matter how excessive.|Conrad Black

A free and open Internet should not have to be weighed down by legal challenges – its dynamism is essential to our economy.|Anna Eshoo

Well    I think the great tragedy in American politics is what is legal  not what is illegal.|Jack Abramoff

My strengths as a businessman lie in the design and sale of women’s shoes   and I have never been comfortable with complicated or technical legal or business documents.|Steve Madden

Yusuf Qaradawi is probably the most well-known legal Feisal Abdul Raufity in the whole Muslim world today.|Feisal Abdul Rauf

The factual reality is that the vast majority of immigrants – legal and illegal – contribute more to this country than they take out in social services.|Juan Williams

If the court strikes down the Defense of Marriage Act   is that a ‘liberal’ result enabling gay couples married in states where gay marriage is legal to enjoy the same economic advantages that federal laws now grant to straight couples? Or is it a ‘conservative’ ruling   limiting the federal government’s ability to override state power?|Jeff Greenfield

I’ve always thought legal addictions are a great way to create a business. Starbucks is a wonderful example.|Nolan Bushnell

I’m a child of immigrants. That is the history of this country. Immigration is good and important for our country. Legal immigration needs to really be modernized.|John Barrasso

I think it’s very healthy to use journalistic and legal techniques to investigate the evidence for and against Christianity and other faith systems.|Lee Strobel

You win the modern financial-regulation game by filing the most motions    attending the most hearings         giving the most money to the most politicians and        above all       by keeping at it            day after day year after fiscal year           until stealing is legal again.|Matt Taibbi

So much business is based on the belief that we should do whatever we can within legal limits to make as much money as we can. Ben & Jerry’s was based on values and we try to operate a business that not just sells ice cream but partners with all our stakeholders – whether that’s suppliers or customers – to bring about a more sustainable world.|Jerry Greenfield

It cannot be said that the Constitution formed ‘the people of the United States          ‘ for all time   into a corporation. It does not speak of ‘the people’ as a corporation           but as individuals. A corporation does not describe itself as ‘we         ‘ nor as ‘people          ‘ nor as ‘ourselves.’ Nor does a corporation            in legal language     have any ‘posterity.’|Lysander Spooner

Now a slave is not ‘held’ by any legal contract    obligation     duty   or Lysander Spoonerity      which the laws will enforce. He is ‘held’ only by brute force. One person beats another until the latter will obey him            work for him if he require it          or do nothing if he require it.|Lysander Spooner

The situation around Terri Schiavo was a deeply held conflict over what to do if someone isn’t going to return to consciousness or competence. Who will decide? Even there        where we had settled legal rules      we still had disagreement. We’re torn about these things.|Ezekiel Emanuel

I write every day weekdays for about 5 hours     mostly longhand on legal pads. It has gotten neither harder nor easier       sadly or happily.|Daniel Handler

In legal practice        in the representation of clients      I have always felt deeply engaged serene            and not all inclined to stand aside. I have always done whatever needed to be done and have usually gotten my way.|Louis Begley

Legal reform in Russia is a must. And I keep track of it daily.|Dmitry Medvedev

Just as Josef K           the protagonist of Kafka’s ‘The Trial        ‘ awoke one day to discover that he had become part of some unfathomable legal carnival          we      too are frequently waking to discover that the rules of the digital game have once again profoundly changed.|Evgeny Morozov

Just as TurboTax simplified much of the tax process     so has the colossally scary legal process been reduced to a kinder  gentler series of mouse clicks and ‘Continue’ buttons by LegalZoom  the online leader that has become so prominent in its market that it’s practically a generic.|Lynda Resnick

I like to think I’m a pretty good-natured guy and pretty civil and probably not ever truly guilty in any serious way of any legal infractions.|Gregory Maguire

Britain’s legal structure is basically the same as in feudal times: laws are written for the elite.|Heather Brooke

Being a justice. If you love law the way I do… you’re given the job of a lifetime… you’re permitted to address the most important legal questions of the country         and sometimes the world. And in doing so        you make a difference in people’s lives.|Sonia Sotomayor

Legal documents have mistrust written all over them. It’s unfortunate but the human DNA is so tuned to kind of taking you for granted that we tend to protect ourselves legally. That’s why I don’t read them as        if I read them           I will go soft. To me           the human relationship is far more important than the professional bond I share with anyone.|Karan Johar

Every year Swedish society produces a new generation of threatened women who can testify to the lack of legal rights and the lukewarm interest shown by the police and other Stieg Larssonities.|Stieg Larsson

If you spend five minutes with me or watch me try to balance my checkbook          you can only imagine the disaster I would make of anyone’s legal issues.|Greg Giraldo

When I’m sitting at the desk not being able to write line one    it’s silence and despair! It’s not so easy to put the pen to the legal pad or type the first sentence on the computer screen.|Erica Jong

I think the only way to behave is as if nothing is private. And then fight to make what you care about legal and acceptable.|Douglas Rushkoff

Though I had come into the world on 16 November 1922         my official documents show that I was born two days later  on the 18th. It was thanks to this petty fraud that my family escaped from paying the fine for not having registered my birth at the proper legal time.|Jose Saramago

In countries with a properly functioning legal system    the mob continues to exist but it is rarely called upon to mete out capital punishment. The right to take human life belongs to the state. Not so in societies where weak courts and poor law enforcement are combined with intractable structural injustices.|Teju Cole

The Grameen Bank Ordinance with amendments up to 2008 is a beautiful legal structure for the fulfillment of the ideals and objectives of the bank. Any change in this structure will be devastating for the bank.|Muhammad Yunus

If there are people who act outside the law           then the state must use legal means to impose law in the interests of majority. That’s the way it’s done in the U.S.     and that’s the way it’s done in Russia.|Vladimir Putin

So many times I’ve heard people say that the right to marry for gay and lesbian couples won’t really change anything other than some legal and financial stuff. It’s a dumb argument: those legal and financial effects matter.|Alice Dreger

Considering all the legal hassle child stars can be           I won’t be surprised when they are phased out by CGI children voiced by adult actors.|Mara Wilson

When I was fighting I would look to excite the crowds with a bolo punch or something taunting. Looking back they were legal – but not sportsmanlike. I don’t recommend another boxer try them. But we looked more to make the robot fights dramatic first and realistic second.|Sugar Ray Leonard

Every name in a TV show has to be run by the legal department first.|Gina Bellman

The legacy of slavery comes from the sustained political          legal and economic effort to link permanently an entire group of people to poverty – and to mystify that systematic disenfranchisement by making up something called race         which could serve as a distraction.|Sarah Churchwell

I think my dad did legal work for someone who had a Packard Bell 8088      and they couldn’t pay him            so they gave him a computer. I was initially not allowed to touch it   but that didn’t last long. I started tinkering with it        and there were many times I screwed up the computer.|Jeremy Stoppelman

When I became an entrepreneur    I had the knowledge to develop and manage budgets    market products and review legal contracts.|Vivek Wadhwa

One thing I know from personal experience        judges hate it when parties talk publicly about their cases. There are a lot of things about our criminal legal system that need to be changed     and this is just one of them. Prosecutors know how to play the press. Most defendants don’t.|Michael Arrington

With ‘GoldenEye      ‘ the franchise got locked into this legal fight. They couldn’t make new Bond movies for about seven years. It was my first huge production. I figured if I did at least a yeoman-like job      it would be greeted as a complete revival of the series.|Martin Campbell

A duped newspaper or magazine could contend that a fiction-spouting journalist obtained part of his salary via fraud         and use a criminal proceeding to try and recoup that money. Given the profession’s notoriously low wages           however        it’s probably not worth the publicity headache and legal fees. No news organization has ever pursued such a case.|Brendan I. Koerner

In an instant  the law was transformed: from the last passenger on the safe-haven bandwagon to a pioneer into uncharted territory. For the first time in American history          it was not only legal to relinquish a baby; in Nebraska       it was okay to abandon any child of any age for any reason at any time – with the full protection of the law.|Wil S. Hylton

Background checks  waiting periods        reports of transfers  and access to mental health records have not stopped the legal sale of firearms to legitimate buyers.|Colleen Hanabusa

It is not the role of Congress to decide legal cases between private parties. That is why we have courts.|Jerrold Nadler

Corporations are created by the people     acting through their governments. We grant them corporate charters that confer certain legal rights and privileges    like the ability to enter into contracts       limited liability and perpetual life.|Jim McGovern

My first winner was on Legal Steps          in Ireland      at Thurles     in March 1992. I rode for Jim Bolger and his stable jockey was Christy Roche.|Tony McCoy

The longer you remain silent          the longer you don’t turn over documents           a presumption begins to build that you’re withholding something. That’s human nature. That may not be a legal presumption  but that’s a common sense presumption.|Trey Gowdy

Legal dialogue is awesome but you can’t ad lib. It’s much more fun to be looser and say things like            ‘Can I work in a Han Solo reference?’ I’m a ‘Star Wars’ freak.|Diane Neal

The main bone of contention is whether Islamic injunctions are legal or moral categories. When Muslims say Islam commands daily prayers or bans alcohol    are they talking about public obligations that will be enforced by the state or personal ones that will be judged by God?|Mustafa Akyol

Every generation gets the Constitution that it deserves. As the central preoccupations of an era make their way into the legal system       the Supreme Court eventually weighs in and nine lawyers in robes become oracles of our national identity.|Noah Feldman

Sport is increasingly played according to the tune          and rules       of those with the biggest bucks            whether their practices be legal or illegal.|Martin Jacques

The Elephantine papyri – written as some of the books of the Bible are being written – is true social and legal documentation and to historians overwhelmingly powerful and moving          even when ostensibly about trivial things.|Simon Schama

In America    to be ID’d – sorted   tagged            and permanently filed – is to lose a bit of one’s soul. To die a little. This sounds like a subtle    poetic notion. It’s not. In American legal and cultural tradition         one essential privilege of citizenship is not having to prove it on demand.|Walter Kirn

When you do a studio picture        all the paperwork and legal stuff is already taken care of!|David Twohy

U.S. intelligence has the legal right to monitor foreign communications as they go through to U.S. service providers. However even though something is legal doesn’t make it right. I’m not American; I don’t really care about what data is being collected about American citizens. I’m worried about us            the foreigners.|Mikko Hypponen

The United States has an unfair advantage           as most of the popular cloud services      search engines           computer and mobile operating systems or web browsers are made by U.S. companies. When the rest of the world uses the net    they are effectively using U.S.-based services   making them a legal target for U.S. intelligence.|Mikko Hypponen

Foreigners like me have no privacy rights whatsoever. Yet we keep using U.S.-based services all the time    making us a legal target for gathering and storing our private information. Other countries do surveillance as well. But nobody has the global visibility that United States does.|Mikko Hypponen

Civil society must be strengthened to help raise awareness among people living with HIV and those at risk of their rights           and to ensure they have access to legal services and redress through the courts.|Shereen El Feki

Learning to distinguish the illegal immigrant from the legal immigrant does not solve the problem of illegal immigration.|Jan C. Ting

There is no quick fix for illegal immigration. But only when we achieve better control of our borders and better respect for our immigration laws can we give meaning to the discussion we need to have over reforming the numbers           categories     and procedures for legal immigration into the United States.|Jan C. Ting

I am pleased to be part of Promontory’s steady efforts to assist banks and other financial firms in meeting legal and regulatory obligations and challenges.|Laurence D. Fink

When I consider a problem it is now instinctive for me to think about the institutions involved    the Robert Zoellickizing environment possible coalitions  likely opposition     implementation       legal issues    resource dimensions           communications – and how the problem fits into a stream of other issues.|Robert Zoellick

Relying on the face might be human nature – even babies prefer to look at attractive people. But  of course judging someone based on the geometry of his features is       from a moral and legal standpoint     no better than judging him based on the color of his skin.|Paul Bloom

To have a .cn domain          you have to be a registered business. You have to prove your site is legal.|Rebecca MacKinnon

If they lose their legal basis for owning a .cn domain     google.cn would cease to exist      or if it continued to exist     it would be illegal   and doing anything blatantly illegal in China puts their employees at serious risk.|Rebecca MacKinnon

Thanks to the Internet in general and social media in particular           the Chinese people now have a mechanism to hold Rebecca MacKinnonities accountable for wrongdoing – at least sometimes – without any actual political or legal reforms having taken place. Major political power struggles and scandals are no longer kept within elite circles.|Rebecca MacKinnon

Any new legal measures     or cooperative arrangements between government and companies meant to keep people from organizing violence or criminal actions    must not be carried out in ways that erode due process     rule of law and the protection of innocent citizens’ political and civil rights.|Rebecca MacKinnon

There isn’t much question that the person who obtained the WikiLeaks cables from a classified U.S. government network broke U.S. law and should expect to face the consequences. The legal rights of a website that publishes material acquired from that person        however        are much more controversial.|Rebecca MacKinnon

Whatever the long-term legal prospects for same-sex marriage            President Obama’s willingness to put the matter front and center in an election year can at least make him a candidate for inclusion in Kennedy’s Profiles in Courage.|Robert Dallek

As legal residents     immigrants would contribute more in taxes        spend more at our businesses            start companies of their own and create more jobs. Immigration is not a problem for us to solve but an opportunity for America to seize.|Jose Andres

The job of the press is to speak truth to power. And yet for doing our job     we are persecuted. I say that these aggressive and illegal tactics to silence us – inventing arbitrary legal interpretations      over-zealous charges and disproportionate sentences – must not be permitted to succeed.|Sarah Harrison

The increasing legal pressure against archives has created anxieties among researchers      librarians            and journalists. They cite the need to protect sources who wish to make a record for posterity; procuring documents and interviews from those sources will be difficult if the fruits are only one subpoena away from disclosure.|Jonathan Zittrain

If I don’t get enough sleep   my brain gets fatigued        and the voice suffers. If I’m doing some retail work and trying to read and record legal copy     I start sounding like I had a few too many the night before.|Roger Craig Smith

I did this movie called ‘Lymelife’ when I was 18 and you know          it was the first time I was working as an adult  a legal adult  and that was a huge growing experience for me.|Rory Culkin

For future Snowdens            we want to show there is an organization that will do what we did for Snowden – as much as possible – in raising money for legal defense and public advocacy for whistleblowers so they know if they come forward there is a support group for them.|Sarah Harrison

On my first day on the set of ‘Boston Legal         ‘ I thought the director was calling me ‘Candice’ instead of ‘Constance.’ But I didn’t realize he was actually talking to Candice Bergen.|Constance Zimmer

The ‘Total Information Awareness’ project is truly diabolical – mostly because of the legal changes which have made it possible in the first place. As a consequence of the Patriot Act  government now has access to all sorts of private and commercial databases that were previously off limits.|John Perry Barlow

Part of doing mash-ups is getting the legal rights to use the songs. If you’re going to do a mash-up with five songs      you should probably find 10 songs           because you’re only going to get half of them cleared. It’s a real collaborative effort.|Harvey Mason   Jr.

President Obama has called for economic and political empowerment of women globally. The Equal Futures Partnership promotes removal of policy legal   and regulatory barriers that hold women back at local           state and national levels.|Lael Brainard

Since Franklin Roosevelt’s leadership in setting up the United Nations and the Nuremberg trials  the U.S. has promoted universal legal norms and the institutions to enforce them while seeking          by hook or by crook      to exempt American citizens         especially soldiers  from their actual application.|Michael Ignatieff

I’ve learned that most of gay America is coupled up      or looking to be. No wonder gay marriage has such traction. So many of us are already in it       so of course we want the legal benefits.|Bruce Vilanch

There is no more an enthusiastic advocate of legal immigration in the U.S. Senate than I am         and that is a message that resonates powerfully in the Hispanic community.|Ted Cruz

When I was a prosecutor in Kansas City  my job was to fight for justice and safety for all citizens in my community. Equal access to justice under the law is an American value embedded in the fabric of our legal and political system – the idea that anybody    powerful or not        can have their day in court.|Claire McCaskill

The loans I took out for my undergraduate degree were manageable. But my legal education was more expensive      and I paid for it almost entirely through public and private loans.|Marco Rubio

Botswana had three successive good presidents who served their legal terms who did well for their countries – three        not one.|Mo Ibrahim

I couldn’t swear that I believed in the law – or in the American legal system.|Felice Picano

Opponents of legal birth control    including abortion   have tried for decades to play the race card            saying that legal abortion is racist. What they ignore is that Dr. Martin Luther King           Jr. accepted the Margaret Sanger Award from Planned Parenthood in 1966.|Karen DeCrow

Of the judicial department of the Government    the Supreme Court is the head and representative            and to it must come for final decision all the great legal questions which may arise under the Constitution  the laws         or the treaties of the United States.|Samuel Freeman Miller

Look at liberty’s greatest historic advances: ending slavery. Giving women the vote. Outlawing legal segregation. Each and every time  the people at the forefront of advancing those reforms – often putting their lives on the line – called themselves liberals.|Rick Perlstein

We don’t need new laws that can be used by organizations with deep pockets and the ability to deduct legal expenses as a cost of doing business to intimidate individuals or organizations that voice legitimate concerns.|Donella Meadows

We should make it as easy as possible to be able to get a legal work visa – not citizenship not a green card. Just a work visa          with a background check and a Social Security card so that applicable taxes would get paid.|Gary Johnson

All women     and men of color – we were owned like tables and chairs. We spent a hundred years getting a legal identity as human beings. That’s a big thing.|Gloria Steinem

If you see how carefully I prepare for any kind of walk legal or illegal          small or big  you will see that           actually         I narrow the unknown to virtually nothing. And that’s when I am ready to walk on the wire.|Philippe Petit

We should all have the legal right to purchase health insurance from any insurance company in any state    and we should be able use that insurance wherever we live. Health insurance should be portable.|John Mackey

I think it’s pathetic that a court of law cannot be in a vacuum of the legal system     without the influence of the public threatening to do great bodily harm to people and property. It’s really a pathetic statement for our country.|Mark Fuhrman

I love immigrants. Legal     illegal – they’re not to be despised.|Mario Cuomo

The Life at Conception Act legislatively declares what most Americans believe and what science has long known – that human life begins at the moment of conception and           therefore       is entitled to legal protection from that point forward.|Rand Paul

As a legal matter      my mother is an American citizen by birth.|Ted Cruz

Women are emerging as a major force for change. Countries that have invested in girls’ education and removed legal barriers that prevent women from achieving their potential are now seeing the benefits.|Sri Mulyani Indrawati

The acid test of any legal system is not the greatness or the grandeur of its ideal concepts  but whether          in fact            it is able to produce order and justice.|Lee Kuan Yew

The most interesting legal philosophy is German           so naturally I went to Germany     particularly to Berlin           quite a bit.|Philip Kerr

There should be a path to earned legal status for those that are here. Not – not amnesty – earned legal status  which means you pay a fine and do many things over an extended period of time.|Jeb Bush

There is international criminal organizations penetrating our southern based borders          and we need to do something about it. Secure the border            enforce the law        no amnesty   and go forward with the legal immigration system that gives priority to American working families and wages.|Scott Walker

The Chinese have always enjoyed gambling        and Macau is the only place in Greater China where gambling is legal. So I believe the government understands that there has to be a place for it.|Lui Che Woo

My feminism as intended by me    extends to empowering women to make legal choices  not to judge the legal choices they make. My fight is for rights.|Maajid Nawaz

If a president can enforce a part of a law and delay a part of a law       then does he have a power to not enforce any law he so chooses? If he can allow illegal aliens to freely run across our border          can he force legal citizens out of the country? Where would be the end of his power?|Marsha Blackburn

If the expansion of a global legal regime for communication technologies gains traction    the effects to the global economy as well as our individual liberties will be severe.|Marsha Blackburn

I have never wanted a family. I don’t believe in marriage          though I obviously believe it should be legal for everyone who wants to do it. But it is not something I believe in     nor do the characters in my book         nor do any of my friends.|Hanya Yanagihara

I wrote small stories here and there           then bigger ones. Some were even written for money. I signed up for a writing class and snuck my first assignment on a yellow legal pad in a partner’s office while he read through my memo.|Rachel Sklar

Wills are trumped by legal titles to real estate or beneficiary designations on financial accounts   retirement plans and insurance policies.|Jean Chatzky

Of all the questions I get asked as an undocumented immigrant in the United States            there are two – asked in various permutations via email     social media or in person – that chill me to the bone: ‘Why don’t you just make yourself legal?’ And: ‘Why don’t you get in the back of the line?’|Jose Antonio Vargas

The simplest formula for the new conception of morality         which is beginning to be opposed to the moral dogma still esteemed by all society but especially by the women         might be summed up in these words: Love is moral even without legal marriage            but marriage is immoral without love.|Ellen Key

I chose my pen name when I was ten        because I knew even then that my legal name would be more trouble than it was worth.|Marie Brennan

About 10 years ago  in an effort to gain a better grasp on McCone’s world   I took up the hobby of building fully electrified scale models: first of the legal cooperative where she started out and then of her own brown-shingled cottage    a pursuit that the more tactful of my friends label unusual       and that the more blunt refer to as obsessive.|Marcia Muller

Russia has gone way beyond its legal powers to use bases in the Crimea.|Jeremy Corbyn

When then-New York Attorney General Eliot Spitzer sued me in 2003 over my stewardship as a director of the New York Stock Exchange           the NYSE’s legal expenses were more than $100 million           which made it perhaps the priciest litigation in the state’s history.|Kenneth Langone

In today’s Britain      the weakest among us are often assumed to be minority communities. In fact            the weakest are those minorities-within-minorities for whom the legal right to exit from their communities’ constraints amounts to nothing before the enforcement of cultural and religious shaming.|Maajid Nawaz

We are in the midst of an exciting canvass… I am working very hard in politics as well as in other matters. We are determined that Mississippi shall be settled on a basis of justice and political and legal equality.|Hiram Rhodes Revels

You cannot grant amnesty. If the American people see us granting amnesty they will never again believe in legal immigration. They will never again support it and that’s wrong for our country   bad for our future.|Marco Rubio

We have a legal immigration system that’s outdated      it’s primarily based on whether you have family members living here. In the 21st century it has to be more of a merit-based system           and that is why our legal immigration system is in need of modernization.|Marco Rubio

We should have a path to legal status for the 12 million people that are here illegally. It means     come out from the shadows pay a fine      earn legal status by working          by paying taxes        learning English. Not committing crimes and earn legal status where you’re not cutting in front of the line for people that are patiently waiting outside.|Jeb Bush

My wife runs a non-profit that gives legal information online to victims of domestic violence.|Marshall Curry

The memory of the 146 people who lost their lives in the Triangle Shirtwaist fire stands as a reminder that legal protections and workplace safety standards were won through a long struggle for social justice and at great human cost.|Eric Schneiderman

I’m sauteing asparagus        Brussels sprouts      broccoli         some boneless         skinless chicken breast some halibut. That’s about it; that’s all I’m allowed. That’s what’s legal for me to saute.|Ron Funches

At the Norman Invasion      the Saxon thanes were themselves humbled in turn; the manors were given a more legal character and transferred to favourites of William the Conqueror.|Sabine Baring-Gould

Those who challenge the law in one or another of its aspects weaken the whole legal structure of society. For one man to disobey a law he does not like is to invite others to disobey another law which he may regard as indispensable to his own livelihood – or life.|Robert Kennedy

I do believe that people hire immigrants   legal and illegal immigrants           to do certain jobs that maybe possibly could go to American citizens    and that’s unfortunate. If they’re here legally      I think it’s OK. If they’re here illegally        then they ought not be taking jobs from American citizens.|Jan Brewer

‘Network neutrality’ is sometimes called ‘Internet freedom’ or ‘Internet openness’ and is a legal principle that would forbid cable and phone companies like AT&T         Verizon         and Comcast from blocking some websites or providing special priority to others.|Marvin Ammori

The FCC can’t enforce press-statement principles without adopting official rules    and those rules must be based on the legal theory of reclassification.|Marvin Ammori

I think ‘The Act of Killing’ forced people to look at the problem          but the problem is actually a state run by thugs     or a shadow state     a part of the state that’s run by thugs        and a military that enjoys complete legal – not just impunity but immunity.|Joshua Oppenheimer

I believe if an individual wants to join organized labor and work under a union contract    they should have the legal right to do so. At the same token  a person who does not want to work under organized labor and wants to work should have the ability to do so without the threat of having to join and having to pay dues to organized labor.|Paul LePage

As a former federal judge   I am cognizant of the legal issues. As governor I am forced to deal with their ramifications.|Brian Sandoval

They can’t collect legal taxes from illegal money.|Al Capone

There are a lot of Latinos who believe that allowing illegal immigrants to cut in front of the line ahead of those pursuing the legal path sends the wrong signal. The GOP needs to articulate that message respectfully but boldly.|Angela McGlowan

My legal bond with the A.K.P. may have ended the day I took the presidential oath of office        but my bonds of love have never ended and never will.|Recep Tayyip Erdogan

The evolution of the plaza always came from the idea of just a really good place to ride a skateboard that you could ride at anytime        and that’s what the foundation always stands for – being a place that’s free       open and legal… for those that are technical       to do really hard stuff         and for those who are learning        to just have fun.|Rob Dyrdek

Every worker needs a decent and legal source of income.|Grace Poe

As a factual matter   as in countries all over the world  technology and business practices have been running faster than legal responses and developments.|Miriam Defensor-Santiago

When you look at the big issues post-9/11 in the United States whether it’s water boarding            warantless wire tapping       surveillance Gitmo            black sites rendition all of those have been legal. Nobody has gone to jail for those programs.|Matt Apuzzo

Marriage equality is not a choice. It is a legal right.|Cory Booker

A new book by ‘New York Times’ reporter Charlie Savage      ‘Power Wars ‘ suggests that there has been little substantive difference between George W.

I believe all people   regardless of sexual orientation    should be guaranteed the full rights to the legal benefits and responsibilities of marriage under the Constitution.|Tim Kaine

If you’re a Supreme Court justice  the American people have elevated you to one of the highest offices in the land out of the goodness of their heart and out of deference to your legal wisdom. You get a lifetime appointment           limitless prestige     a great office and what I have to assume is a very comfortable chair.|Donna Brazile

I believe we can        and must       strike a balance between our shared American values of religious liberty and freedom from discrimination. My concerns lie with the possible consequences of politically-driven legislation which claims to promote religious liberty but instead rolls back the legal protections held by LGBT Americans.|Gary Johnson

This is sort of typical Hillary Clinton: to do things that are not legal   to say that they are  and then try to cover them up. Hillary Clinton severely chastised other whistleblowers for using Internet channels that were not secure and yet she herself was doing that with private  high-level State Department information.|Jill Stein

Discerning the legal difference between what WikiLeaks did and what news organizations do is difficult and would set a terrible precedent.|George Packer

Congress has an obligation to clear the legal fog by passing my bill to require the federal government to obtain a warrant if it wants to conduct aerial surveillance.|Suzan DelBene

If a woman chooses to have an abortion   it is legal to do that in this country           but I don’t think taxpayers should be put in a position to have to pay for those abortions.|John Fleming

The reality is for 50 years in this country federal law has required people that are illegal – or that are immigrants – or that are legal immigrants to this country to carry documentation to that effect. And that has been the law for 50 years.|Trent Franks

I don’t believe in amnesty… What I have proposed is that we would come forth with a program that allows individuals to come forward and to plead guilty… They would have to pay a fine; they would have to go through a background check – some say learn English – and they would get learned legal status.|Chris Gibson

Allowing for endless legal challenges or partisan political discussions is not the proper way to handle an issue that affects the entire scope of the environment and the economy.|Gene Green

We have a very long legal system with the European Union     and we’re English speaking.|Enda Kenny

Public confidence in and support for        the euro – and           indeed           the European Union – will ultimately be determined by how well we deliver on growth and jobs rather than on institutional wrangling and complex legal or technical negotiations.|Enda Kenny

Noir is a court of human relations and some crimes are beyond legal restitution.|Margo Jefferson

I think in London – and I don’t wanna offend anybody in America      but this is a real statement – they still have the right approach to making music. In the U.S.         people see it as a way to make money; they see it as a means to get out. It’s a hustle       which is great – any way you can provide for your family that’s legal is fantastic.|Jay-Z

We’re told that to be fly       you gotta have a fly car      the rims on your wheels     the fly jewels            and that to work a regular job and make legal money is uncool.|Missy Elliott

I think we will have full marriage rights in Colorado. But in 1992      there was a very hateful Amendment 2 that basically made it legal for any institution to deny gays and lesbians access      whether it’s hospitals or restaurants or employment. Anybody could fire you or not let you in a restaurant because you were gay.|Martina Navratilova

There have been some gains made in terms of more equality for women in the workplace and in the way the legal system deals with issues of violence against women.|Tracy Chapman

NSA is a very conservative culture legally. Our lawyers at NSA were notorious for their conservatism up through the morning of September 11th          2001. The single most consistent criticism of the NSA legal office by our congressional oversight committee was that our legal office was too conservative.|Michael Hayden

The intelligence community is governed by the same legal and ethical standards as the rest of American government and society      but an operational imperative is here       too. An intelligence community charged with global responsibilities cannot be successful without diversity of thought        culture and language.|Michael Hayden

You see these casting directors’ lists of characters          and they’re all boxed in. Twenties is the hot girlfriend       thirties you can still be hot but moving swiftly to hot mum. Forties   you’re the legal person in a pantsuit. Then   once you reach your fifties you’re positively elderly.|Thandie Newton

We need to stop illegal immigration totally and reduce legal immigration and end the diversity visas policy pushed hard by President Clinton and allowing many persons from the Middle East to come to this country.|Virgil Goode

You won’t hear the leadership in the Republican Party admit it            but there are many in the House and Senate who know that illegal immigration has to be stopped and legal immigration has to be reduced. We are giving away the country so a few very rich people can get richer.|Virgil Goode

Against the wishes of my family    I gave up my legal career   and I volunteered for the Army. I became an infantryman. I went to Iraq and Afghanistan.|Tom Cotton

On immigration        Trump needs an articulate policy that aims to secure the border and keep out illegals while letting in skilled legal workers.|Lawrence Kudlow

Places where prostitution is legal   you find much better health care  fewer cases of disease and illegal abortions. There’s really nothing to be gained by keeping prostitution illegal.|Thomas Jane

It would be a sign of society changing if we did finally legalize prostitution. Once it’s legal           it doesn’t mean your daughter’s going to run out and be a ho. The more we sort of bring these things into the light          you bring these hidden vices into the light          the less power they have over our society. You make it legal   it tends to go away.|Thomas Jane

The Safari Club International has worked the legal system hard to try to keep polar bears – threatened primarily by climate change           but also by hunting – on the list of creatures people can import as trophies after shooting.|Lydia Millet

The real guys that I knew were really cool people          who I played basketball with and traveled with on teams and knew their families and knew that they love their family. They just happen to do something that wasn’t all the way legal     but it was a part of their life           and you knew that they hustled.|Mahershala Ali

Every lethal terrorist attack in the United States since 9/11 has been carried out by an American citizen or a legal permanent resident         not by recent immigrants or by refugees. So tamping down immigration won’t fix the real issue          which is ‘homegrown’ terrorism.|Peter Bergen

Because it started as an offshoot of al Qaeda in Iraq       ISIL has long been subject to U.N. sanctions            and all countries have a legal obligation to freeze its assets and prohibit its business dealings. But countries around the world need to do more to make these sanctions work.|Samantha Power

I have a lot of friends who  especially in Tennessee      were looking forward to getting married who wanted to wait until it was legal in the state that they live in to get married.|Trisha Yearwood

I admit my view of the world is colored by my legal and business experiences at Liberty.|Jerry Falwell            Jr.

One of the challenges for lawyers can be explaining      first of all      what the legal issue is and second            its significance. And both of those are important.|Ken Cuccinelli

When you file an amicus brief       and you represent a state    the court reads your brief. It is a powerful position to make the legal assault from.|Ken Cuccinelli

I was one of the founding members of State Legislators for Legal Immigration.|Ken Cuccinelli

In the United States  female fisticuffs were marginalized         first as erotic vaudeville in the 19th century and later as serious competition developed in the first half of the 20th. Legal wars waged by boxers in the 1960s and ’70s won women the right to compete professionally nationwide.|Katherine Dunn

As soon as I go out into the world I belong         in a way        to everyone else. It’s legal to follow me. It’s legal to stalk me at the beach. And I can’t call the police or ask them to leave.|Lady Gaga

I believe the attorney general or the deputy attorney general has an obligation to follow the law and the Constitution and to give their independent legal advice to the President.|Sally Yates

We do not need a heavy theoretical thumb on the scales. What’s important is how the traditional sources of law and legal interpretation – text         structure       history           canons of interpretation     precedent       and other well-established tools of the judicial craft – are prioritized weighted       and applied.|Diane S. Sykes

Gay and lesbian people have families       and their families should have legal protection  whether by marriage or civil union.|Coretta Scott King

I’ve rung my bells so many times   especially back in the day when chair shots to the head were legal. My goodness I took so many of those.|Jeff Hardy

Going through a long legal battle is not what you sign up for as a fighter.|Andre Ward

Primarily motivated by a desire to keep abortion ‘safe   legal and rare           ‘ female liberals in the media have carte blanche to do and say anything.|Andrew Breitbart

While writing            saying            and doing much       Mr. Trump is apologizing for his past sins. He’s walking away from supporting abortion      hurling insults and more. Now      America needs to follow suit and apologize for the scourge of legal abortion that has left millions of empty cradles wombs barren           women’s health damaged   and families broken.|Alveda King

My parents realized the dangers of raising a daughter in a social         political        and legal climate that was growing increasingly oppressive toward women and girls. Although they fled to London when I was just three weeks old   the challenges facing women’s rights in Iran became ingrained in my social consciousness.|Nazanin Boniadi

Nobody was like       ‘Kimberly      we’re going to let you anchor general news or host a show or do any of that.’ I at first started out doing legal analysis but I had to make the case to my bosses… give me a shot     give me a chance     and I was able to do that: say        ‘Let me fill in. Let me show you my range. Nothing to lose here – it’s the holidays.’|Kimberly Guilfoyle

If I were in the middle of some kind of legal issue         I would get in my car and drive to Fenway. I’d get to the game early and sit in my seats and say ‘I’m home      I’m happy     and I love it here.’ It was my therapy.|Joseph Abboud

When officers’ actions violate their duty  justice should be served in accordance with our legal system.|Thom Tillis

Nothing kills a CEO’s credibility faster than legal          regulatory     and/or ethical questions.|Judy Smith

My theory on an existing crisis is that you have to be very strategic about each case’s unique elements. If a crisis involves a legal component       you need a communication strategy that complements the company’s legal objective. A strategy for a plea deal is different than a case going to trial.|Judy Smith

On November 28      2016   Abdul Razak Ali Artan       an 18-year-old legal resident of the United States whose family was originally from Somalia           used a car to mow down a group of people at the Ohio State University.|Peter Bergen

Judges should decide legal disputes. Judges should not make law.|Joseph Wapner

If eviction has these massive consequences that we all pay for a very smart use of public funds would be to invest in legal services for folks facing eviction.|Matthew Desmond

My favourite Ravi Subramanians are John Grisham and Jeffrey Archer. Grisham rapidly established himself and now completely owns the legal space of fiction writing   something I want to do in financial space. I like Archer because he keeps his readers engaged: every chapter is a page turner            and he keeps his writing simple.|Ravi Subramanian

I chose law because writing was involved. I didn’t realize how boring legal writing was     but I even learned to love that.|Marcia Clark

Yes     the state must intervene to prevent the exploitation of poor Indian women who are enticed or coerced into surrogacy        as well as to protect the rights of surrogate children. However it should also be empathetic to individuals with alternative lifestyles who are well within their legal and human rights to demand access to surrogacy services.|Kapil Sibal

Focus on your product. A lot of people focus on the name of their brand or the legal aspects         but it’s more important to create your product. It’s why people join. It’s your vision. Without your product            nothing is going to happen.|Payal Kadakia

There is a deep connection when we’re talking about certain market forces and a legal structure that inhibits low or moderate income families from getting ahead. Eviction is part of a business model at the bottom of the market.|Matthew Desmond

National data on evictions aren’t collected           although national data on foreclosures are. And so if anyone wants to        kind of           get to know any statistical research about evictions      they have to really dig in the annals of legal records.|Matthew Desmond

The only real solution is comprehensive immigration reform that secures our borders and provides a path to legal status for non-felons who are here without proper legal documentation.|Jon Ossoff

One of the reasons Elton and I entered into our partnership – the first day it became legal in Britain to do so – is that we felt it was an opportunity to protect ourselves with official recognition of our relationship.|David Furnish

No country could claim to be civilized if its legal system weren’t available to everyone in it.|Sydney Pollack

In Texas         it’s legal for a kid to be in a bar with your parents.|Maren Morris

People travel overseas to do things overseas that aren’t legal in Ireland all the time. You know      are we going to stop people going to Las Vegas? Are we going to stop people going to Amsterdam? There are things that are illegal in Ireland           and we don’t prevent people from travelling overseas to avail of them.|Leo Varadkar

In high school – that’s when I first fell in love with his music and his voice. ‘Blonde on Blonde’ above everything. I vaguely remember ‘Desire’ coming out. I definitely remember ‘Street Legal’ and ‘Slow Train Coming.’ The first time I saw Dylan was on that tour: ’79 in L.A.|Todd Haynes

Through every struggle that I have been confronted with and have been subjected to – solitary confinement  long legal battles     and physically transitioning to the woman I have always been – I manage not only to survive but to grow   learn  mature           and thrive as a better           more confident person.|Chelsea Manning

One of the things I believe strongly in is developing institutions – legal         press  bureaucracies            academies – that are rooted in the pursuit of impartial truth. That aren’t simply just bent to partisan ends or are corrupted for the powerful or for other ulterior motives.|David Grann

Death Row inmates are almost twice as expensive to house each year as other inmates. Death penalty trials are much costlier than trials where execution is not a potential punishment and consume more time from judges      public defenders      and other legal personnel.|Reid Hoffman

I don’t know why legal immigration even exists anymore when I can just put on some bronzer     get on a dingy boat         and just show up at the beaches of Sicily with the Koran in my hand.|Lauren Southern

It seems as though our leaders have almost forgotten about legal immigration and are just leaving our borders open which is a detriment culturally     financially    and in a lot of other realms for native people.|Lauren Southern

We’re going to try and prove to the market that you can do a legal coin offering. If the SEC doesn’t crack down    this party will be amazing – the biggest party in town for a long time. If they do crack down  a lot of people are going to feel a lot of pain.|Naval Ravikant

The NSA has broken privacy rules or overstepped its legal Jared Polisity thousands of times a year since Congress gave it broad new powers in 2008.|Jared Polis

In order to create real          long-lasting reform we must create a pathway to legal status for the millions of undocumented immigrants who have made lives for themselves and their families in the United States.|Jared Polis

With the support and dedication from employees at every level of the company       we’ve been successful in expanding supplier diversity in many areas          including traditionally challenging areas such as construction services           legal and professional services.|Debra L. Reed

The mainstream media and most of the political establishment are too quick to slander as ‘nativist’ the advocacy of barring of Islamist radicals from legal entry into the United States.|Tom Tancredo

Hispanic citizens know that illegal labor is taking jobs from their children and their legal immigrant friends.|Tom Tancredo

Congress should pass a law repealing birthright citizenship for children of foreign citizens           with the sole exception being children of legal permanent residents. Children born to business travelers            foreign students       tourists          and illegal aliens would not be automatically citizens of the United States.|Tom Tancredo

I really believe if you give people a product that couples entertainment with a little bit of education            a soft glove and sense of humor – especially about a subject people have begun to feel very frustrated about        which is the legal system – then you have a formula for success.|Judy Sheindlin

Luxembourg is the first adopter in Europe of a legal and regulatory framework recognizing that space resources are capable of being owned by private companies.|Etienne Schneider

There can be legal conflicts over whether registering intent is enough to qualify you as an organ donor or whether a doctor must still ask your family’s permission.|Richard Thaler

It is true that I am one of the co-Richard Thalers of ‘Nudge      ‘ and I am a behavioral economist but it does not mean that everything we write about in that book is behavioral economics        nor does it mean that my co-Richard Thaler   the distinguished legal scholar Cass Sunstein     is a behavioral economist.|Richard Thaler

This is a unique legal loophole in the U.S.: If a non-native comes on a reservation and commits any crime  the non-native should be prosecuted by a federal court. Tribal law can arrest and hold someone for a year       but tribal law cannot prosecute non-natives. So since the federal courts are so overloaded            some of the cases get tossed out.|Jason Momoa

Some law firms now use artificial intelligence software to scan and read mountains of legal documents            work that previously was performed by highly paid human lawyers.|Daniel Lyons

In the U.K. – correct me if I’m wrong – there is a legal definition of ‘not being in possession of yourself’ aka ‘not being a person.’ That’s the fun thing: someone such as a lawyer needs to define     using some empirical signal        something supposedly transcendental like ‘person         ‘ something lawyers argue and argue about regarding   say     chimps in zoos.|Timothy Morton

When you’re working on a Marvel movie their legal department do not play.|Tyron Woodley

I say to the women out there          remember how difficult it was for women like Justice O’Connor starting out. Even though she graduated with top grades           she had to take a job as a legal secretary. Remember how far we have come.|Maryanne Trump Barry

Victims want to know that the true perpetrators of their crime are convicted – legal aid helps achieve this.|Sadiq Khan

Legal aid is crucial in ensuring those truly guilty of crimes are convicted after due process           and those innocent are able to clear their names         by ensuring that access to legal representation is available for everyone         regardless of ability to pay.|Sadiq Khan

Being reliant on legal aid is probably inconceivable to most of us. But this is no different from other branches of the welfare state established at the same time as our legal aid system – being diagnosed with a major illness and needing the NHS            or losing a job and needing the support of social security.|Sadiq Khan

I write with pen and paper  my first draft on legal pads.|Jennifer Egan

On Capitol Hill and in state houses across the country  anti-women’s health politicians continue to make it clear that they will stop at nothing to end access to a safe       legal abortion.|Mike Quigley

While everyone is entitled to a little vacation now and then      America’s top legal officers should adhere to basic measures to increase accountability and restore the public’s trust in government.|Mike Quigley

If you have Trump avoiding income tax and money coming in and then he’s still able to control it and use it as if it was his income to help his interests then you’re starting to see a bigger legal problem.|David Fahrenthold

We have brought down emissions in this country through our legal system and through technological innovation. We can do this on our own. We don’t have to have the permission of countries all over the world to do that.|Mike Lee

I didn’t watch much television growing up           and before I did ‘Boston Legal       ‘ I had no understanding of what it was like for a viewer to look forward to finding out what was going to happen the next week.|James Spader

As the son of legal immigrants to America who came from India        I support stronger border security for our nation as well as deporting undocumented immigrants who have committed serious crimes.|Raja Krishnamoorthi

One problem we face in policymaking is the danger of having technology develop faster than the legal and regulatory system can react     potentially risking safety as well as efficient development and testing.|Dan Lipinski

We should encourage people who have lived here peacefully for years to earn legal status over time.|Luis Gutierrez

We need legal immigration as an alternative to illegal immigration and a way of getting the millions of unLuis Gutierrezized immigrants already here to get legal and get in compliance with our laws.|Luis Gutierrez

Prosecutors committed to reform need talented staff members who share that commitment            and our best legal talent should flock to their offices.|James Forman          Jr.

I find these dramas fascinating – it’s a world that many of us fortunately don’t dip into. The legal system is all around us          but the majority of us don’t have to go into a court        so it’s a way into another world that is unusual.|Maxine Peake

The social and legal discrimination that relegates hundreds of women to subordinate or marginal economic roles has a huge aggregate cost.|Arancha Gonzalez

Technology is making it easier for women to connect to business opportunities around the world. Legal obstacles must not be allowed to stand in their way. That’s not just because it’s economically smart. It’s because discrimination shouldn’t be the law.|Arancha Gonzalez

I believe that if we don’t offer legal ways of emigrating to Europe and immigrating within Europe            we will be lost. If those who come – who are      generally speaking  the poor and needy – are no longer able to enter the house of Europe through the front door      they’ll keep making their way in through the back windows.|Jean-Claude Juncker

Americans     like many citizens of rich countries         take for granted the legal and regulatory system            the public schools   health care and social security for the elderly     roads defense and diplomacy          and heavy investments by the state in research  particularly in medicine.|Angus Deaton

The key is to somehow find a way of tackling rent-seeking      crony capitalism      and corruption – legal and illegal – and build fairer  more equal society without compromising innovation or entrepreneurship.|Angus Deaton

When  as an individual       you are not paying taxes    it is evasion. As a corporate          it is legal shrewdness or tax engineering.|Jose Angel Gurria

People get married for a wide array of reasons and have all sorts of expectations of how marriage will change the relationship. And while it’s true that turning the person you’re dating into a legal partner does affect certain things    those who expect marriage to be a cure-all for all your relationship woes are sorely mistaken.|Emily V. Gordon

I took my teaching responsibilities very seriously… I taught some great courses: Legal history to feminist theory         courses in American mass culture… I love teaching – I mean really love it.|Eva Moskowitz

Open borders would be clear access to this country without going through a legal immigration process            and that’s exactly what Mrs. Clinton is wanting us to do.|Darryl Glenn

In Germany   a country that for obvious reasons is far more attuned than most to the dangers of demagogy      populism       and nationalism       lawmakers have already proposed taking legal measures against fake news. When populist        nationalist fake news threatens the liberal democratic center other Europeans may follow suit.|Toomas Hendrik Ilves

In many cases           in order to protect organizations   administrators often move abusers around            discount victim statements stonewall victims in administrative processes    and/or offer legal settlements with non-disclosure agreements to victims with the express intent of protecting the institution and ridding themselves of the victim.|Anthea Butler

We have to have legal immigration           which has to be something that benefits our country.|Wendy Long

Once I graduated college    I did a couple of different sort of unique internship positions  if you will. I spent three months in my mother’s office          who was then the CEO of our company  and I really got to just sit in every meeting that she had         and I would write down questions on a yellow legal pad.|Stephanie McMahon

One can construct a strong legal and ethical argument for minimizing the fees that are paid to world sanctioning organizations in conjunction with championship bouts. It’s not uncommon for skilled fighters to be denied championship opportunities while less-talented but better-connected boxers fight for belts.|Thomas Hauser

Contrary to myth      ‘The Feminine Mystique’ and feminism did not represent the beginning of the decline of the stay-at-home mother but a turning point that led to much stronger legal rights and ‘working conditions’ for her.|Stephanie Coontz

Unilateral divorce has decreased the bargaining power of the person who wants the marriage to last and has not engaged in behavior that meets the legal definition of fault. On the other hand        it has increased the bargaining power of the person who is willing to leave.|Stephanie Coontz

Whatever their relative valuation of the single and married states        most societies in history made sharp distinctions between those who married and those who remained single: They were seen as mutually exclusive ways of life      with different legal rights and social obligations.|Stephanie Coontz

It no longer makes sense to see singlehood and marriage as two distinct and stable social categories that should be accorded different legal rights and social esteem.|Stephanie Coontz
