Ed. note: Welcome to our daily feature, Quote of the Day.
I think that it means that anything is possible. Five years ago, I was a district court [judge]; nobody knew who I was. To have both of the pieces of my fondest dreams come true in this little bit of time has been extraordinary for me.
I’m overwhelmed with the joy of this experience. I’m so grateful to the staff and crew of ‘& Juliet’ for helping my dream come true. It was phenomenal.
— Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, in comments given to “CBS Mornings” co-host Gayle King after the conclusion of her one-time performance in the hit musical comedy “& Juliet.” Jackson reflected on the amazing experience, concluding, “I think the lesson is: don’t give up and don’t be deterred, that you can do it. And again, that anything is possible.”
