Melvin Watt: “It is not always feasible or desirable for every true invention to receive patent protection.”

I think if you ask most people out in the public, there is actually the opinion that there is an unlimited guarantee to this space, and that is not true.

I took a lot of heat for reinstating it. But it was a statutory mandate, and I did not see a reason not to follow the statute.

I don't think you would want either Republicans or Democrats, I don't think either one would want 15, 20 percent of their economy in conservatorship for years and years.

if you look at my record throughout my whole life, from the day I started in the practice of law in a civil rights law firm, you will find nobody, or few people, who are more committed to the things that you all have talked about today.
