It doesn't make sense for me to be a lawyer in a place where there is no law.

What do I care about law? Ain't I got the power?

Instead of taking a very high-paying type of law job or something that I might be able to do, I have been a legislator. That's what I do. I think it's an honorable profession - if you're honest and have integrity and work hard.

I've become very fond of the law. I've always been an advocate for justice, which occasionally the law brings to light.

I'm the policy-maker; I'm the lawmaker.

I give off rather mixed messages about the law. On the one hand, I can honestly say I don't miss working in a law office. On the other hand I do enjoy watching the law and while the profession may have its problems, I have sold zillions of books out of magnifying them.

My job is to follow the law, not to make up the law that has been promulgated by the people or the people's representatives.

I was one of the worst attorneys. I didn't enjoy law.
