“Truth always originates in a minority of one, and every custom begins as a broken precedent”
Will Durant
“If 'settled' means that it can't be re-examined, that's one thing. If 'settled' means that it is a precedent that is entitled to respect then it is a precedent that is protected.”
Samuel Alito
“When you do it for one doctor and don't do it for anyone else ... it sets a terrible precedent.”
Robert Bernstein
“Everything started to go wrong at Real after those first three years when commercial decisions took precedence over sporting ones. They started signing players for the sake of signing them. When things are like that sooner or later you pay for it.”
Luis Figo
“We set a precedent that we can play a good team, we can play defense and we're one of the better teams in the league. I saw [Borders] was ahead of me in scoring, and I wanted to let him know I want to be the top scorer in this league.”
Dale Parsons
“We were only up 3-2 at the time. He didn't set a good precedent for his teammates. He's one of their skill players, a leader in that dressing room, and taking a penalty like that, it puts them behind the 8-ball. You don't see a guy like Daniel Alfredsson doing that, you know - that's a good leader.”
Chris Neil
“Like healthcare preparedness that preceded it, schools are one of the two 'magic bubbles' where we seem to think our children are somehow divinely protected when we put them on the bus each day. We have infrastructure that is in some cases over 100 years old, and built in a time, and in a manner, for the era when chewing gum was the major crime on campus. Today, we have to appreciate that natural disasters are on the rise, as is crime, in and around school campuses.”
