In that, he expresses a view common to many jurists who abhor such terms, feeling that they decide each case on its own particular merits. He thinks that serving on the court would be "a much more soul-searching, much more wrenching" experience than his current judgeship. Even that, he admits, has involved "the difficult loneliness...
