From Justice Scalia’s dissent in Dickerson v. United States, 530 U.S. 428:
“The requirement that [constitutional rules, as modified by later decisions, must make sense] is the only thing that prevents this Court from being some sort of nine-headed Caesar, giving thumbs-up or thumbs-down to whatever outcome, case by case, suits or offends its collective fancy. . . .
“As far as I am aware, the public is not under the illusion that we are infallible.”
