When I Was Sworn In As A Judge Of The Court Of Appeals, I Took An Oath. I Put My Hand On The Bible And I Swore That I Would Administer Justice Without Respect To Persons, That I Would Do Equal Right To The Poor And To The Rich, And That I Would Carry Out My Duties Under The Constitution And The Laws Of The United States.

I Am Particularly Proud Of My Contributions In Recent Cases In Which The Government Has Argued In The Supreme Court That Racial And Ethnic Quotas Should Not Be Allowed And That The Constitution Does Not Protect A Right To An Abortion.
