"People have boldness to criticize but not to sensitize."

"The First Amendment is not an altar on which we must sacrifice our children, families, and community standards. Obscene material that is not protected by the First Amendment can and must be prohibited."
"Judges who take the law into their own hands, who make up constitutional 'rights' in order to strike down laws they oppose, undermine the people's right to have their values shape public policy and define the culture."
"Vigilant and effective antitrust enforcement today is preferable to the heavy hand of government regulation of the Internet tomorrow."
"Microsoft is engaging in unlawful predatory practices that go well beyond the scope of fair competition."
