“Practice justice in word and deed, and do not get in the habit of acting thoughtlessly about anything.”

“Moral excellence comes about as a result of habit. We become just by doing just acts, temperate by doing temperate acts, brave by doing brave acts.”

“Once a response becomes a habit, you stop learning. Theoretically, you could act differently, but in practice you do not. Habits are extremely useful, they streamline the parts of our lives we do not want to think about...But there is an art to deciding what parts of your life you want to turn over to habit, and what parts of your life you want to continue to learn from and have choice about. This is a key question of balance.”

“The thought manifests the word;The word manifests the deed;The deed develops into habit;And habit hardens into character;So watch the thought and its ways with care,And let them spring forth from loveBorn out of compassion for all beings.As the shadow follows the body, as we think, so we become.”

“Practicing law is not about winning. It's about justice. Simple, naked justice. It's about finding the truth. - Judge Sarah L. Hart”

“Enthusiasm is the electricity of life. How do you get it? You act enthusiastic until you make it a habit.”
