Regarding Judges: Consider the Constitution

"That text is known to them that have the patience to read it, possibly one one-hundredth of one percent of the denizens. They forget it, all save a few Western states. I think somebody in Dakota once read it. The Constitution."
-- Ezra Pound
(1885-1972) American poet
June 30, 1943

"I spent three years getting my law degree at Yale Law School. From the moment
I enrolled, I was assigned huge, leather-bound editions of legal cases to study
and discuss. I read what lawyers and judges, professors and historians said
about the Constitution. But never once was I assigned the task of reading the
Constitution itself...Over the last decade, however, I have become a student of
the Constitution, searching each line for its meaning and intent. Studying the
Constitution is like studying the Bible. It is amazing how much more you will
learn when you quit studying about it and pick it up to read it for yourself."
