Supreme Court Quotations

[Rick Garnett]

The previous posts' quotations of various powerful dissents reminds me of
this (probably not Encyclopedia-worthy but still funny) gem from
then-Justice Rehnquist:

"The comments in the dissenting opinion about the proper cases for which to
look for the correct statement of [fill in the blank], and about which
cases limit earlier cases, are just that:  comments in a dissenting
opinion."  U.S. R.R. Retirement Bd. v. Fritz, 449 U.S. 166 (1980).
