Nina Totenberg quotes about

I didn't know how much I cared about having a woman on the court until the day there was a woman on the court.
[On Senator Jesse Helms] I think he ought to be worried about what's going on in the Good Lord's mind, because if there is retributive justice, he'll get AIDS from a transfusion, or one of his grandchildren will.
