Clarence Thomas Quotes:
Ocupation: Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States
Life: b. June 23, 1948
Birthday: June 23
The Constitution contains no 'dignity' Clause, and even if it did, the government would be incapable of bestowing dignity. ... Slaves did not lose their dignity (any more than they lost their humanity) because the government allowed them to be enslaved. Those held in internment camps did not lose their dignity because the government confined them. And those denied governmental benefits certainly do not lose their dignity because the government denies them those benefits.
