I am a trial lawyer. Matilda says that at dinner on a good day I sound like an affidavit.

Failure's inevitable. It happens all the time in a complex economy. And how did the economy produce all these amazing things that we have around us, computers and cell phones and so on?

I call my program 'Somersizing,' and Somersizing is not a diet. Diet is a nasty four-letter word that conjures up negative thoughts of sacrifice and obsession and guilt.

Every trial lawyer knows what it is like to sit patiently while the other side puts on its case.

This week I was proud to join with my colleagues to help pass two important, common-sense pieces of legislation that will limit the frivolous lawsuits by trial attorneys and personal injury lawyers that clog our courts and hurt our small businesses.

It took several years of trial and error, soul-searching and hard work to shape the ROI program into the ROI Community.

Children do not have to learn that streets are dangerous places by potentially fatal trial and error.

The Brer Rabbit ploy has been quite effective for me. When a country is talking about prosecuting me, I demand to be charged and put on trial and offer to pay my own airfare.

America Online, of course, is a master of the hard sell, from stuffing mailboxes with free trial offers to forcing subscribers to click through ads before they can get their e-mail.

Fellow citizens, we cannot escape history. We, of this Congress and this administration, will be remembered in spite of ourselves.

On an ideological level, Senator Nelson is not in touch with the mainstream of Florida, ... He has voted against tax relief that has been passed by the Republican majority in Congress. He votes to protect the trial lawyers against reform of frivolous lawsuits. We think a Republican challenger is going to do very well if they contrast his record to the Republican positions.

I feel strongly that the president did not speak the truth...and in my judgment it had to go over to the Senate. But I still feel the Senate which can look at and may want to go for a full trial should at least take this opportunity to look at the possibilities of censure and what can be done to bring this to a close.

I don't think any person who goes through a life-threatening situation or a trial of a great magnitude comes out the same.
