Do the best you can in every task, no matter how unimportant it may seem at the time. No one learns more about a problem than the person at the bottom. --------------- I don't know that there are any shortcuts to doing a good job. --------------- We don't accomplish anything in this world alone... and whatever happens is the result of the whole tapestry of one's life and all the weavings of individual threads form one to another that creates something. --------------- Slaying the dragon of delay is no sport for the short-winded. --------------- Young women today often have very little appreciation for the real battles that took place to get women where they are today in this country. I don't know how much history young women today know about those battles. --------------- Society as a whole benefits immeasurably from a climate in which all persons, regardless of race or gender, may have the opportunity to earn respect, responsibility, advancement and remuneration based on ability. --------------- Yes, I will bring the understanding of a woman to the Court, but I doubt that alone will affect my decisions. I think the important thing about my appointment is not that I will decide cases as a woman, but that I am a woman who will get to decide cases. --------------- The power I exert on the court depends on the power of my arguments, not on my gender. --------------- The more education a woman has, the wider the gap between men's and women's earnings for the same work. --------------- Despite the encouraging and wonderful gains and the changes for women which have occurred in my lifetime, there is still room to advance and to promote correction of the remaining deficiencies and imbalances. --------------- Each of us brings to our job, whatever it is, our lifetime of experience and our values. --------------- The family unit plays a critical role in our society and in the training of the generation to come. --------------- We pay a price when we deprive children of the exposure to the values, principles, and education they need to make them good citizens. --------------- The courts of this country should not be the places where resolution of disputes begins. They should be the places where the disputes end after alternative methods of resolving disputes have been considered and tried. |

"Inspiration may be a form of super-consciousness or
perhaps of sub-consciousness. I wouldn't know. But I am sure it is the antithesis of self-consciousness." |

We come into this world crying while all around us are
smiling. May we so live that we go out of this world smiling while everybody around us is weeping. |
