I was a sitting judge in Manhattan. I was a supervising judge in Manhattan, and they said to me, 'Did you ever think of doing what you do on television?'
Being a nurturer isn't being a moron.
If you take control over those things you can, you are better able to negotiate the unexpected.
Women make a terrible mistake because they usually are so desperate to nest that they pick on schlubs and worthless pieces of trash that they pick up in a bar.
A judge is supposed to be able to make a decision, and when you make a decision, very often one party - and very often both - are a little disappointed.
Women watch and say, 'I like watching you control your own space. It's motivated me to do better, to go back to college, to even try law school. My daughter's been watching you since she's 10 - I love the fact that she's watching a strong woman who's in control.' All of those things are good, positive things.
I resent it when any part of the government refers to people who have money in the pejorative.
When states and cities and our country say we're going to tax the rich - and that word 'rich' or 'wealthy' doesn't sound like it comes from success of hard work, but from something negative - I resent it.
I don't feel as if anything that has happened to me in my life was sidetracked because I was a woman.
It took them 13 years to get O. J. Simpson, but they got him. What goes around comes around.
I never don't have a good time. Even when I go to work with a cold or a sore throat, as soon as I hit the mark and walk out that door, everything else is gone, and I'm up.
I would never interrogate a child or a spouse the way I would a litigant. People wouldn't want to be around you. You'd wind up all alone on an island.
The reason that you have statutes of limitations is because evidence goes stale sometimes.
A combination of tenacity and luck brought me here today.
Because of the world we live in, we lock the doors in our house when we go to sleep. If you live in an apartment, if you can, you get a building that has a doorman or security.
To be considered presidential timber, there has to be a measure in the way you present your argument.
My viewers are smart. They know I have a contract with a TV show and that I make a lot of money.
My first husband is a lovely, lovely man, but he always viewed my job as a hobby, and there came a time where I resented that.
I think that there is a difference between men and women as a warrior and a nurturer... It's innate.
I don't like to watch train wrecks.
