But for their right to judge of the law, and the justice of the law, juries would be no protection to an accused person, even as to matters of fact; for, if the government can dictate to a jury any law whatever, in a criminal case, it can certainly dictate to them the laws of evidence.

The time has come for professional jurors.

Juries must, of necessity, be governed, in reaching many results through inferences from other facts, by certain laws of nature and human reason. They are often obliged to infer one thing from another, and this, whether that other be a fact direct or circumstantial.

I have great faith in the jury system.

I felt grand juries were illegal and coercive.

I don't like juries having the wool pulled over their eyes. I don't think that's what the Constitution is about.

Black jurors sit on juries every day and convict black people every day.

I've served on five different juries, and many of them were bonkers in their own way.

Jury selection is strictly an emotional process. They're looking for people they can manipulate. Both sides are.

Jurors want courtroom lawyers to have some compassion and be nice.
