Judges have a hard job. It’s not just putting someone in jail or slapping someone on the wrist and giving them a punishment, but it’s protecting society as a whole.

Every man has his little weakness. It often takes the form of a desire to get something for nothing.

I know I’m a good professional, I know that no one’s harder on me than myself and that’s never going to change, under any circumstances.

One of the hardest parts of my job is to connect Iraq to the war on terror.
