Learned Hand quotes
" A self-made man may prefer a self-made name. "

Learned Hand
" A wise man once said, "Convention is like the shell to the chick, a protection till he is strong enough to break it through." "

Learned Hand
" For, when all is said, as my friend George Rublee likes to put it, the only success is to be a success as a person; and it is still not too late for that. "

Learned Hand
" I shall ask no more than that you agree with Dean Inge that even though counting heads is not an ideal way to govern, at least it is better than breaking them. "

Learned Hand
" I submit to you that we must press along. Borrowing from Epictetus, let us say to ourselves: "Since we are men, we will play the part of Man". "

Learned Hand
" If we are to keep democracy, there must be a commandment: Thou shalt not ration justice. "

Learned Hand
" In the end it is worse to suppress dissent than to run the risk of heresy. "

Learned Hand
" It lies in the hearts of men and women; when it dies there, no constitution, no law, no court can save it. While it lies there, it needs no constitution, no law, no court to save it. "

Learned Hand
" Liberty lies in the hearts of men and women; when it dies there, no constitution, no law, no court can save it. "

Learned Hand
" Life is made up of a series of judgments on insufficient data, and if we waited to run down all our doubts, it would flow past us. "

Learned Hand
" Life is made up of constant calls to action, and we seldom have time for more than hastily contrived answers. "

Learned Hand
" No doubt one may quote history to support any cause, as the devil quotes scripture. "

Learned Hand
" Right knows no boundaries, and justice no frontiers; the brotherhood of man is not a domestic institution. "

Learned Hand
" The condition of our survival in any but the meagerest existence is our willingness to accommodate ourselves to the conflicting interests of others, to learn to live in a social world. "

Learned Hand
" The mid-day sun is too much for most eyes; one is dazzled even with its reflection. Be careful that too broad and high an aim does not paralyze your effort and clog your springs of action. "

Learned Hand
