When I went to law school, which after all was back in the dark ages, we never looked beyond our borders for precedents. As a state court judge, it never would have occurred to me to do so, and when I got to the Supreme Court, it was very much the same. We just didn’t do it.

I just try not to judge. Don’t judge me, and I won’t judge you.
32
With the confirmation of Judge Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court, the Republican political establishment has done something it is not actually used to doing. It won. It isn’t that Republicans have never won before, it is just that they typically win by forfeit.

The young people I know judge leaders by their deeds and abhor hypocrisy. Inconsistency and point-scoring do not win respect. It’s not easy to be engaged in political debate when it is reduced to performers trying to outdo each other. Actions from leaders must mirror the values they claim to espouse.
46
Don’t ever know who you may meet, or just because a person may not be dressed up all fancy, don’t mean they’re not an important person. You just don’t ever know who you’re gonna meet in life. So that’s why I look at everybody as equal. Can’t just judge. I treat everybody with respect. Every man.
47
48
A judge must be independent and must interpret the law, not make the law.
49

61
You have the right to kill me, but you don’t have the right to judge me. That’s life. There’s nobility in that. There’s focus. It’s genuine. It’s crystal and it’s pure and it’s available to everybody, so just shut your traps and put down your McDonalds, your vaccines, your Us Weekly, your TMZ and the rest of it.
62
One of the things that we’re all struggling with is how to judge the quality of the value-added experience of an educational course or year. I don’t think it’s impossible to do that, but it’s difficult.
63
I do believe that every person has an equal opportunity to be a good and wise judge regardless of their background or life experiences.
64
65
66
I can’t judge the way other people behave. I can only look at myself.

People tend to judge a book by its cover. I love being unexpected and gaining respect for who I am and not how I look.
68
In every interview, when they would ask me who should be a judge, I would always say Harry Connick, Jr., so I think I had something to do with him becoming a judge! He has a blunt, dry sense of humor. You never know if he’s joking or not, and I think that’s going to catch a lot of people by surprise.
69
Any government, that is its own judge of, and determines authoritatively for the people, what are its own powers over the people, is an absolute government of course. It has all the powers that it chooses to exercise. There is no other or at least no more accurate definition of a despotism than this.

73
When you’re offstage, that’s the footprint. That’s the man God’s gonna judge.
74
During my time as a judge, as a justice, and as attorney general, I’ve had one overarching goal, and that is a strict interpretation and application of the laws and the Constitution. I would be Madisonian.
75
I’ve learned how to look at things and not judge them, but respect them and use it in a way that people understand that I respect them, show them love and respect their reality.
76
For me, ancestry is just one thing that connects us to people, and feeling connected to other people is generally a good thing, as long as one kind of connection does not have primacy over all the others. Heredity, race and nationhood are not the best criteria by which to judge our fellow humans.
77

80
To hear both critics and defenders talk about the fitness of Judge Sonia Sotomayor for the Supreme Court, you’d think the most successful Supreme Court justices had been warm, collegial consensus-builders. But history tells a different story.
81
A conscience without God is like a court without a judge.
82
83
It’s difficult to judge yourself.
84
From a spinner’s perspective, in India it was never easy for me to judge where to stand: how far forward, how far back, because on Indian wickets the ball does not carry as much as abroad. That is true of slip fielding in general. I wouldn’t say only for spinner – even for a fast bowler, that holds true.
85
I don’t judge my characters.
86
87
During this period at the Department of Education, my working relationship with Judge Thomas was positive.
88
When I first came to Hollywood, the blacklist was just starting, and they were having hearings in Washington. What most people don’t know is the judge of these hearings himself was later convicted of misappropriation. ‘Spartacus’ helped break the blacklist, because Spartacus was a real character.

91
92
93
I was privileged to serve as a judge.

101

102
103
If someone is gay and he searches for the Lord and has good will, who am I to judge? We shouldn’t marginalise people for this. They must be integrated into society.
104
How sad it is that these great gentlemen should believe what anyone tells them and do not choose to judge for themselves! But it is always so.
105
106
107

I was the first judge in the ‘Indian Idol’ format. The biggest risk when you adapt a format from a country in the West is how to make it your own, so I remember at the press conference for Indian ‘X Factor,’ the press would ask, ‘Who is Simon Cowell?’ And I said ‘Why don’t you ask Simon Cowell, ‘Who is Sonu Nigam?’
114
Never judge a person if you don’t know him.
115
I’m not the kind of judge where you get away with everything, because I know my basics. But I’m the judge where, if you emotionally capture me, then you’ve got me, I’m in your team.
116
It’s weird. You find a safe place in someone who you feel like maybe they can’t judge you because they don’t know you.
117
118
It’s never appropriate for a judge to impose that judge’s personal convictions – whether they derive from faith or anywhere else – on the law.
119
Public speaking is scary, I think. I’ve gotten way better at it. If I have to do a speech and be like, ‘I’m a YouTuber,’ then that’s easy, but if I have to get up there and pretend I know something in front of adults, it’s never fine. In front of adults, it’s like, ‘Ahhhh they’re going to judge me.’
120
JAG is an acronym for the Judge Advocate General, which is the judicial system of the military.
121

124
125

126
Celebrity life and media culture are probably the most overbearing pop-cultural conditions that we as young people have to deal with, because it forces us to judge ourselves.
127
If someone who is poor says, ‘I may not have much money, but for me, what’s really important is to have a good television so my family can enjoy and watch,’ we should be a little careful and recognize that just like we all have individual liberty to make the choices we want, that we not judge too much on that.
128
You can’t buy something which does not exist. In a way, let’s make things exist and then judge later. Don’t cancel the process of creativity too early; let it flow.
129
130
131
132
Be kind, don’t judge, and have respect for others. If we can all do this, the world would be a better place. The point is to teach this to the next generation.
133
It is intellectually dishonest to look backwards with all the facts and judge the decisions that were made with almost none of the facts, or the facts that existed hidden in the normal cloud of endless speculation of what might happen.
134
135
I think I have the skills. I’m a great judge of talent. I just know basketball.
136
I don’t read for amusement, I read for enlightenment. I do a lot of reviewing, so I have a steady assignment of reading. I’m also a judge for the Anisfield-Wolf Book Awards, which gives awards to literature and nonfiction.
137
To grow wiser means to learn to know better and better the faults to which this instrument with which we feel and judge can be subject.
138
139
140
I never judge myself according to the expectations of others. I judge myself by the jobs I’ve been given over the years and by the extent to which I succeeded in those jobs.
141
142
I don’t think a judge should be too much involved in outside activities.
143
It is a sad day for our country when the moral foundation of our law and the acknowledgment of God has to be hidden from public view to appease a federal judge.
144
Conscience is our unerring judge until we finally stifle it.
145
146

150
151

152
I do not judge, I only chronicle.
153
154

I would never judge anyone for going anywhere for money.
156
I already know what people are going to say about me, and judge me for the decisions that I’m making, and I’m going to be the one who has to deal with that, and nobody else. And that’s a lot.
157
158
159
As a practising lawyer, I was mediocre, but I worked hard as a law officer of the state government and on the private side. After becoming a judge, I maintained a low profile in other activities and concentrated only on judicial work.
160
The good thing is I didn’t feel like anyone was going to judge me on ‘Glee.’
161

170
171
I call upon my God to judge me, he knows that I love my friends and above all others my wife and children, the, oppinion of the world to contrary notwithstanding.
172
Try to see the good in others. When you’re tempted to judge someone, make an effort to see their goodness. Your willingness to look for the best in people will subconsciously bring it forth.
173
The task of a judge is not to make the law – it is to apply the law.
174
175
It’s really never fair to judge people because none of us know what’s going on inside anyone else‘s head.
176
I can have peace of mind only when I forgive rather than judge.
177
I really enjoy playing villains, whether they’re realistic like Switchblade Sam or whether they’re a bit more over-the-top like Kruge in ‘Star Trek III’ or Judge Doom in ‘Who Framed Roger Rabbit.’ It’s sort of a license just to be as bad as the script allows you to be – you can just go for it and have fun.
178
179
180
181
182
There’s an assault on human sexuality, as Judge Scalia said, they’ve taken sides in the culture war and on top of that if we have a democracy, the democratic processes should be that we can elect representatives who will share our point of view and vote those things into law.
183
The thing about me is that I don’t judge my audience. I welcome. It is a big tent.
184
185
186
187

189
190
191

192
Interviews, and hence interviewers, are there to help shed light, and to let viewers judge for themselves. We are not judges, juries, commentators or torturers – nor friends, either.
193
The world at large does not judge us by who we are and what we know; it judges us by what we have.
194
Don’t judge me. I made a lot of money.
195
I’ve never been impressed with bureaucratic tradition. I don’t like it when the parties come to me and say, ‘This is the way that it’s always done, judge.’ I never found anything in the oath I took or the statutes I was asked to look at that said, ‘Judge, stop thinking, because this is the way it was done before.’
196
You can almost judge how screwed up somebody is by the kind of toilet paper they use. Go in any rich house and it’s some weird coloured embossed stuff.
197
198
People judge us looking from the outside. They don’t really know what is going on in my life. There are hundreds of perspectives out there. I cannot live up to all the expectations.
199
I can never read this book, just like I can never see a movie that I wrote a screenplay for. I can read it and see it physically, but I can’t accurately judge it. I’m too close to it. If I read it ten times I’ll have ten different reactions.
200
201
Some persons never attain to the happy art of perspicuous expression, and it is equally true that some persons, thro’ a mental defect of their own, will judge the most correct and certain language of others to be indefinite and ambiguous.
202
I don’t really try to judge any character that I play, afterwards I figure it out, but while I’m working on the character, I have to find something in them to relate to.
203
204
It’s not my style to judge anybody.
205
Part of our job as storytellers is to show people pockets of the world that they don’t know. The more we understand, the more we don’t judge.

Our political leaders must be honest and forthcoming with data that will allow citizens to use facts and figures to judge for themselves what state Social Security is in.
207
208
209
But it’s a strange thing when people judge you because you’re not doing some big Hollywood film. Are you suggesting I should be in ‘The Dukes of Hazzard?’ I mean, hello?
210
211
When I step into a character’s shoes, I don’t judge them. I make a conscious effort not to look from the outside in but look from the inside out, and when you do that it allows you to feel and sense things more, and act and react from a core, you know?
212
213
For something to be profitable doesn’t necessarily mean it’s the best thing in the world for the director. You judge a movie by different standards – I’ve worked on comedies, and now I’ve worked on superhero movies, and the reviews are almost parenthetical in both of those genres.
214
All my life, I’ve had a strong belief that I want to judge myself and others on their contribution, not their sex. I don’t think much of it when employers want applause for hiring women or minorities. Whether for the Supreme Court or McDonald‘s, if you hire the best person, you’ll have a diverse workplace.
215
I love a woman, I love to judge how beautiful she is, how beautiful I can make her.
216
One of my good friends is Christian, goes to church every Sunday, very religious. I’m fine with that and I will never judge her.

We never, ever judge someone on who’s going to heaven, hell. That’s the Almighty’s job.
218
219
220
221
The man who says he is willing to meet you halfway is usually a poor judge of distance.
222
We judge people based on their clothes, social class, and, dare I say, ethnicity. Our comedians make light of these stereotypes regularly, and we laugh at their accuracy.
223
Hopefully, 21 years later, Judge Roberts possesses an openness with respect to issues of gender-based wage discrimination.
224
225
Merrick Garland was the most qualified nominee, not just in our lifetimes but perhaps in the history of the United States Supreme Court. The chief judge of the D.C. Circuit for 20 years, the nation’s second-highest court. Never once been overruled by the Court in his 20 years. He was extraordinary.
226
The way to judge a new artist is by listening to their albums and gauging the progress that they make from the first record to the next one.
227
228
You can’t please everyone. When you’re too focused on living up to other people’s standards, you aren’t spending enough time raising your own. Some people may whisper, complain and judge. But for the most part, it’s all in your head. People care less about your actions than you think. Why? They have their own problems!
229
230
231
232
If people are going to judge me without fully understanding the content of my character, then their opinion just isn’t worth it.
233
I’m trying to convey to my audience that you really can’t judge a book by its cover, and there’s more to the universe than you can see with your eyes.
234
235
236
People should judge me for what I’ve done in 25 years. I’m not a rookie in F1.
237
I don’t judge a regime by the damning criticism of the opposition, but by the ingenuous praise of the partisan.
238
You are what you can prove you’ve done. That’s how people judge you.
239
240
My main characters are the most sunny, happy, optimistic, loving creatures on the face of the Earth. I couldn’t be happier that’s where I start. I can put as many flawed people in the dog’s world as I like, but the dog doesn’t care. Dog doesn’t judge. Dog doesn’t dislike. Dog loves. That’s not so bad.
241
I’m going to let God be the judge of who goes to heaven and hell.
242
Ice shows give us the opportunity to forget ourselves and just perform. They are amazing opportunities to be in front of audience to try out new material, to show new costuming. It’s an incredible opportunity to do what we do without the stress of worrying about what a judge is going to say.
243
Your Highest Self only wants you to be at peace. It does not judge, compare, or demand that you defeat anyone or be better than anyone.
244
We judge people in areas where we’re vulnerable to shame, especially picking folks who are doing worse than we’re doing.
245
246
I think I’m a good judge of character.
247
248
If history judges society for how it treats those in need, so markets judge economies by the incentives they provide for private investment, the infrastructure that supports growth, and the burdens placed on job creation.
249
Judge me on what I do and I think you will be pleased and proud of me.
250
Judge yourself; if you do that you will not be judged by God, as St. Paul says. But it must be a real sense of your own sinfulness, not an artificial humility.
251
But, you know, when I choose a film I need to believe in it and believe I can do something special with it, and after a while that means not trying to judge or analyze why I should do it. You have to follow this intuition thing, which is a mystery to me.
252
253
We cannot go up on a wire. We cannot do a search without a judge on the FISA Court approving it and determining that we have met the standard that has been set forth by Congress in order to utilize these techniques.
254
You learn to judge your friends for who they are.
255
I admire my fellow judge Paul Hollywood enormously, though we often argue. He believes presentation and uniformity are paramount; I’m more interested in taste. I don’t mind if one bun is smaller than the others, or if there’s a little pastry cracking, though I don’t want a soggy bottom.
256
You have reckoned that history ought to judge the past and to instruct the contemporary world as to the future. The present attempt does not yield to that high office. It will merely tell how it really was.
257
Why do you judge me as a musician, John? All I’m interested in is making money.
258
259
260
261
262
There is little evidence that other animals judge the appropriateness of actions that do not directly affect themselves.
263
264
History or custom or social utility or some compelling sense of justice or sometimes perhaps a semi-intuitive apprehension of the pervading spirit of our law must come to the rescue of the anxious judge and tell him where to go.
265
266
There are a lot of food Nazis in the U.S., but I believe if you can show people what’s really important, they’ll judge the rest for themselves.
267
268
People can judge me for what I’ve done. And I think when somebody’s out in the public eye, that’s what they do. So I’m fully comfortable with who I am, what I stand for, and what I’ve always stood for.
269
One thing I am sure of is that I won’t judge a dance reality show.
270
The work of deciding cases goes on every day in hundreds of courts throughout the land. Any judge, one might suppose, would find it easy to describe the process which he had followed a thousand times and more. Nothing could be farther from the truth.
271
272
Well, one thing, you got to stand in a courtroom and listen to a judge sentencing you to 25 years in prison before you realize that freedom of expression can no longer be taken for granted.
273
Historically, I think you can really judge a person by their shoes.
274
Social media is the wrong place to judge what India is thinking about.
275
My father was a Tuskegee Airmen captain in the Air Force and a very strong personality. He believed in fairness and ethics and living up to the commitments you make to others. He ultimately became a judge, and he would talk to me over and over about how important it is to be fair.
276
It is hard to see Judge Roberts as a judicial activist who would place ideological purity or a particular agenda above or ahead the need for thoughtful legal reasoning.
277
Be strong, believe in freedom and in God, love yourself, understand your sexuality, have a sense of humor, masturbate, don’t judge people by their religion, color or sexual habits, love life and your family.
278
I’ve never met or spoken to David Lee Roth, yet it’s rather ironic that even he’s saying Eddie‘s lying about things. I’m saying he’s not telling the truth, yet Eddie insists that the two of us are lying! You be the judge.
279
I’m not a judge.
280
281
I don’t consider that I have to judge any of the movies I make all the time, but people are always asking me, ‘What’s your favorite movie?’ And I never know what to say.
282
I am a Christian person, and I do love the Lord, and I feel no matter who you are, what you believe, how you live your life, it’s not my place to judge. I don’t have that power. I don’t want that power. It’s my place to love and to show God’s love to other people, even if they don’t live a life like I live.
283
Just don’t let anyone judge you. Move at your own pace. Do things the way you want, and if people don’t get it immediately, then make them understand.
284
I like Young Thug. A lot of people might think I don’t like Thug. I listen to Thug more than I listen to a lot of them. You got to listen to the music and absorb it. Some people might see him on the centerfold or something and just automatically judge him. You got to listen.
285
286
287
The only person I look up to – and not just in show business but also in the world – is a little lady named Judge Judy! Honestly.
288
‘Fairness’ can be an important quality for legislators to consider when they are passing public policies. But it is a subjective standard. And it has no place among judges on a court – whose duty is to dispassionately judge a law’s constitutionality.
289
290
I remain mindful that the role of a judge is a limited one and that judges can’t solve every problem. But at the same time, judges play a crucial role in safeguarding liberty and protecting the rights of all citizens.
291
292
One of the first things I was taught as an actor was, ‘Don’t judge the character.’
293
The future generation is not going to judge India just on the basis of one election. There are greater things by which the country is judged. The future generation is going to want a strong economy.
294
I like all types of women. I accept them as they are when they come into my life… But I’m not a romantic. I’m just up-front. I like to be a part of something real, not make-believe. I tell women to tell me the truth, to just lay it out. Let me be the judge and decide if I want you around or not. Let me have my choice.
295
I was married by a judge. I should have asked for a jury.
296
There’s nothing I want less than a piece of cheese or a burger. I have nightmares I’m being force-fed these things. I have no interest in converting anyone. It’s purely how I want to live my life. I don’t judge anyone.
297
The first commercial judge in Medina was a woman!
298
299
300
301
I always tell friends you can’t judge your success by someone else’s. You can’t be afraid to fail.
302
303
304
History will judge me… I shall remain silent.
305
After all, it is style alone by which posterity will judge of a great work, for an author can have nothing truly his own but his style.
306
When President Donald Trump nominated Judge Neil Gorsuch to serve on the Supreme Court, I said that he deserved a fair hearing and a vote. I said this even though Senate Republicans filibustered dozens of President Obama‘s judicial nominees and then stopped President Obama’s Supreme Court nominee, Judge Merrick Garland.
307
You have plaintiffs attorneys, you have defense attorneys. So there is no unified bar that will protect a particular judge who has made a courageous decision that’s unpopular.
308
I don’t mind being identified as any character as long as I’m doing a good job as an actor. I have done all kinds of roles – from an editor, judge, police officer, murderer to a corrupt businessman.
309
310
311
312
313
Whoever has witnessed another’s ideal becomes his inexorable judge and as it were his evil conscience.
314
It’s difficult to judge other actors, because as an actor you’re looking at different things than what an audience is looking at.
315
I do think human beings cannot be faulted for wishing to judge themselves and their lives and their achievements by others around them; that is a natural human feeling.
316
I have been a judge for 15 years and I’ve made up my own mind during all that time.
317
I suppose we’re not supposed to judge people.
318
It would never occur to me to judge anyone.
319
If you can manipulate news, a judge can manipulate the law. A smart lawyer can keep a killer out of jail, a smart accountant can keep a thief from paying taxes, a smart reporter could ruin your reputation- unfairly.
320
One of the great things about America is we should not judge until we know the facts.
321
When I am able to resist the temptation to judge others, I can see them as teachers of forgiveness in my life, reminding me that I can only have peace of mind when I forgive rather than judge.
322
323
324
The NSA is forbidden to ‘target‘ American citizens, green-card holders or companies for surveillance without an individual warrant from a judge.
325
326
327
So my attorneys brought litigation in the U.S. federal courts. The judge ruled in our favor.
328
329
A judge who likes every outcome he reaches is very likely a bad judge… stretching for results he prefers rather than those the law demands.
330
You simply can’t judge a team’s football from the country it comes from.
331
332
Our dependency makes slaves out of us, especially if this dependency is a dependency of our self-esteem. If you need encouragement, praise, pats on the back from everybody, then you make everybody your judge.
333
I’m not anybody’s judge; I don’t know what motivates people to do what they do. But I have a lot of admiration for anybody who can start with absolutely nothing and make a little something out of it.
334
335
When people say good things about me, judge me based on my behaviour and work, that makes me happier than a film’s success would.
336
Anyone is free to judge me, but they weren’t there in my tough times.
337
In the fallen there is danger of pride and vainglory, since they prefer their own judgment to the judgment of everyone else, usurping what is not their own by setting themselves up as judges in their own cause when the rightful judge is their superior.
338
Since I am me, I find it very difficult to judge how fascinating listening to my nasal, heavily-accented drone for two hours would be to somebody who wasn’t me.
339
340
I have myself been on the other side of the table being a participant of a singing talent hunt. Hence, it is weird but awesome at the same time to judge a pool of talent that our nation has.
341
To be a utilitarian means that you judge actions as right or wrong in accordance with whether they have good consequences. So you try to do what will have the best consequences for all of those affected.
342
343
The trial of a case is a three-legged stool – a judge and two advocates.
344
345
346
Praise doesn’t mean anything to me. I don’t judge myself.
347
American teachers have one indisputable advantage over foreign ones; they understand the American temperament and can judge its unevenness, its lights and its shadows.
348
I’m 36 and if I met a woman of my own age and married her, I’d also be marrying her former life, her past. It might be OK for some people – I don’t want to judge it or anything – but it’s not for me. It would destroy my creativity.
349
I was everything, patriarch, priest, father and judge.
350
351
We should not judge people by their peak of excellence; but by the distance they have traveled from the point where they started.
352
What I’ve got to do now is let them judge me for who I am as an actor and not for my notoriety.
353
I think we judge talent wrong. What do we see as talent? I think I have made the same mistake myself. We judge talent by people’s ability to strike a cricket ball. The sweetness, the timing. That’s the only thing we see as talent. Things like determination, courage, discipline, temperament, these are also talent.
354
I think there is something so compelling about the truth that whether you’re a lawyer or judge or an actor, when you get at that truth, it connects with people on a particular level that I think makes your art more viable.
355
You can only judge anything that happened in the times, in the times that that happened.
356
Everyone will someday be judged for what they do, and Jah is the only judge.
357
We shouldn’t judge people through the prism of our own stereotypes.
358
The woman pastor would often be, especially for women and children, a better minister than the clergyman; for them also, the woman judge might often surpass the man in penetration and understanding.
359
I’m just really supportive of everyone – even though I believe that things should be equal, people have different circumstances in their life that have taught them to be who they are. Even if I don’t agree with them, I don’t judge them. I’m a really non-judgmental person.
360
Write for yourself, not for a perceived audience. If you do, you’ll mostly fall flat on your face, because it’s impossible to judge what people want. And you have to read. That’s how you learn what is good writing and what is bad. Then the main thing is application. It’s hard work.
361
A Supreme Court justice must convince at least four colleagues to bind the federal government nationwide, whereas a district court judge issuing a nationwide injunction needn’t convince anyone.
362
It’s very difficult to judge yourself. Extreme self-doubt is only attractive when it’s fictionalized. Which is why people love the movies. They are so reassuring.
363
364
365
So in fact the only thing you can judge in this sport its the longterm. You can judge a career or a season, but not one race.
366
I do not believe that the people of Ontario judge their leaders on the basis of race, sexual orientation, colour or religion. I don’t believe they hold that prejudice in their hearts.
367
In fact, for all kinds of offenses – and, for no offenses – from murders to misdemeanors, men and women are put to death without judge or jury; so that, although the political excuse was no longer necessary, the wholesale murder of human beings went on just the same.
368
You have discovered so much kindness and good will to those you thought were oppressed, and had no helper, that I am sure you will not despise what I have wrote, if you judge it will be of any service to them.
369
I judge people on how they smell, not how they look.
370
371
372
373
374
Drone attacks subvert the rule of law – we become judge, jury, and executioner – at the push of a button.
375
Great minds are to make others great. Their superiority is to be used, not to break the multitude to intellectual vassalage, not to establish over them a spiritual tyranny, but to rouse them from lethargy, and to aid them to judge for themselves.
376
If we are honest with ourselves, we have to admit that sometimes our assumptions and preconceived notions are wrong, and therefore, our interpretation of events is incorrect. This causes us to overreact, to take things personally, or to judge people unfairly.
377
You can’t really judge characters, because that’s when it gets really hard to play them.
378
379
I wanted to be in the police force, a teacher, a judge, lawyer, doctor, and other jobs. Of course, my mind changed as I started to face reality.
380
I have, I think, afforded every opportunity that could be reasonably expected, to judge of my credibility.
381
And I believe in the 13 years Judge Roberts was there, he never turned down a request to give some assistance on a pro-bono case, and this was no different.
382
Don’t judge a book by its thickness either.
383
384
385
I feel like when people judge me they’re not judging me, because they don’t know who I am.
386
Judge me if you want to. And as a matter of fact, it won’t even count, ’cause the only person who can judge is God.
387
Here’s my questions to anybody when they talk about comedy. When you are with your friends, who don’t judge you, what do you say? And if that’s appropriate to say with your friends, why is it not appropriate anywhere else. Like, I hate those people who judge me and are hypocrites.
388
I love being a judge, and I anticipate being a judge for the rest of my life.
389
I ain’t got no right to judge someone.
390
391
I don’t think we should judge celebrities for doing charity work. Period. Whatever their reasons for doing it, they are shedding light on issues that would otherwise go unnoticed.
392
393
394
395
396
I believe Judge Kavanaugh is a well-qualified conservative jurist, and I commend President Trump for his commitment to naming Supreme Court justices who are committed to the rule of law.
397
I have a saying. ‘Never judge a book by its cover’. I say that because I don’t even know who Ozzy is. I wake up a new person every day.
398
It took me a long time not to judge myself through someone else’s eyes.
399
I’m a judge. It seemed to me that it was critical to try to take action to stem the criticism and help people understand that in the constitutional framework, it’s terribly important not to have a system of retaliation against decisions people don’t like.
400
In a constitutional democracy the moral content of law must be given by the morality of the framer or legislator, never by the morality of the judge.
401
My dad said, ‘Stay humble, and you gotta work harder than everybody else.’ My mom said, ‘Always be yourself.’ She always told me only God can judge me.
402
I don’t care how people judge me.
403
404
405
The judge said I was a menace to society because I had put crime on a scientific basis.
406
I hate tests. It’s a really lousy way to judge a person’s ability.
407
Whoever is in the spotlight, people are really quick to judge. I mean, there are a lot of kids coming up who’ve experienced that. You know, Justin Bieber, he’s huge, and he experiences that. It’s just the way the world works, unfortunately.
408
Al Gonzales is a dedicated public servant and exceptionally qualified to be our nation’s next Attorney General. I know that a lot has been said about Judge Gonzales’ life story. It is a story of the fulfillment of the American Dream.
409
That’s what he was saying, the civil rights movement – judge me for my character, not how black my skin is, not how yellow my skin is, how short I am, how tall or fat or thin; It’s by my character.
410
411
412
413
414
You’ve never seen me debate anybody. On anything. Ever. My investment of time, as an educator, in my judgment, is best served teaching people how to think about the world around them. Teach them how to pose a question. How to judge whether one thing is true versus another. What the laws of physics say.
415
I perceive and relate to the world through where I grew up; that’s part of me. It’s what I judge everything else against.
416
417
I’ll be the judge of when I can’t play anymore.
418
419
I find that we must be careful not to judge or weigh in on anything other than ourselves. I am living and learning this still!
420
I don’t judge people by their sexual orientation or the color of their skin, so I find it really hard to identify someone by saying that they’re a gay person or a black person or a Jewish person.
421
I find it difficult to judge myself, but people say that I have become a bit more socially acceptable over the years in terms of my material; which apparently at the beginning – though I never really intended it to be – was man hating and now is just a bit more cuddly.
422
I come all wreathed in a reputation the press has made for me. Judge me on my actions. That’s all that counts.
423
An accurate knowledge of the past of a country is necessary for everyone who would understand its present, and who desires to judge of its future.
424
Who is Mike Judge? Let me think. The only way I could possibly answer that question would be in a nonverbal fashion. I think I could do an interpretive dance that would answer that question for you.
425
If you’ve ever been to a poetry slam, you know that the highest scoring emotion is self-righteous indignation: how dare you judge me. So in that way, the poem, ‘What Teachers Make,’ is an absolutely formulaic slam poem designed to allow me to get up on my soap box and say, ‘Let me tell you what really makes me angry.’
426
I never thought I would find someone who wouldn’t leave me and talk back to me and judge me for being crazy.
427
Let the Lord judge the criminals.
428
429
We haven’t yet found a speck of evidence for biology on another world, so we have no objective way to judge whether life is a onetime fluke or a near-inevitable phenomenon.
430
Now, I don’t know how they judge all that, but if anybody in the world deserves to be in the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame, Ritchie Valens does.
431
432
433
Every actor is alive because of his/her fans. I’m glad that my fans love me so much. I have an immense responsibility towards them. That’s why I’m careful while signing a film. What is also important is to judge whether I would like to watch the film as an audience or not.
434
You can’t judge a book by its cover until you open up and read it. There are going be a million stories out there, true or not true. I say get to know me first before you judge me.
435
436
437
God knows I gave my best in baseball at all times and no man on earth can truthfully judge me otherwise.
438
Before I judge someone, I need to talk to them and learn what their journey’s are.
439
440
441
442
Six men can carry you or 12 men can judge you. You decide!
443
444
I don’t judge people. I don’t even judge people on ‘The Voice.’ I’m a coach. I’m there for constructive criticism and to aid and abet and discover new talent.
445
I think it’s very important for people to not judge the people you’re playing. You have to find a way to love them because their story is theirs. I just don’t think there would be any use in that.
446
Merely implying bias due to a judge’s ethnic heritage is wrong as a matter of principle and legally illegitimate.
447
I’m not going to judge anybody on their personal circumstances.
448
Michael Jordan brings millions of dollars when he shows up in an arena. Since money is how we judge people, he’s very valuable. But while that’s happening, Rome is burning within the black community.
449
Tell the FBI that the kidnappers should pick out a judge that Nixon wants back.
450
451
So with truth – there is a certain moment when one can say, this is the truth and here I put a dot, a stop, and I go to another thing. A judge has to put an end to a deliberation. But for a historian, there’s never an end to the past. It can go on and on and on.
452
453
We respect the role of the Senate. We respect the authority of the Senate to look at the qualifications of Judge Roberts, and at the end of the day I’m optimistic that if given a fair hearing and a fair opportunity, that he will be confirmed.
454
I’m sure I wouldn’t have been asked to judge the Man Booker if it weren’t for ‘Downton.’
455
456
We do not judge the people we love.
457
How one can live without being able to judge oneself, criticize what one has accomplished, and still enjoy what one does, is unimaginable to me.
458
It’s very difficult to judge relationships from the outside. You never know what happens in intimate moments with two people to know why they really support and love each other.
459
460
It is up to God to take revenge. Only God can judge. I don’t have to worry about getting even with anybody or taking out any kind of aggression on anybody. Doing that is a weakness, anyway.
461
I have a tendency to judge everything in its relationship to me instead of the value it has in God’s eyes. I cannot judge everything solely on its good or bad effect on me.
462
With trials, you become wiser. You learn more about yourself and the people surrounding you. Me personally, I’ve never been the type of person to judge anyone over wrongdoing, no matter what it is. I’m just not a judgmental person.
463
I don’t know why men are so fascinated with television and I think it has something to do with – if I may judge from my own father, who used to sit and stare at the TV while my mother was speaking to him – I think that’s a man’s way of tuning out.
464
I have the profoundest respect for people who behave in a generous way because of religion. But I come from a country where the misuse of religion has had catastrophic consequences. One must judge people not by what faith they proclaim but by what they do.
