Curious Case

Famous quotes containing the words curious and/or case:

    It is a curious thing that every creed promises a paradise which will be absolutely uninhabitable for anyone of civilised taste.
    Evelyn Waugh (1903–1966)

    I do not allow myself to be moved by anything except the law. If there has been a mistake in the law, or if I think there has been perjury or injustice, I will weigh the petition most carefully, but I do not permit myself to be moved by more harrowing details, and I try to treat each case as if I was reviewing it or hearing it for the first time from the bench.
    William Howard Taft (1857–1930)
