That Chief Justice Roy Moore is a remarkable man is obvious to everyone who has met him, even his critics. In an article published in National Review, one such critic observed:

But he has this trick, a freak of memorization ability, that allows him to recite huge passages from memory. I’d raise an issue, and he’d respond with about 800 words of direct quotation from some obscure writing of James Madison. Another question would bring an equally long citation from the Bible or from an opinion by a federal district judge in Mobile. When asked for a copy of whatever document he was quoting from, he would quickly find it in one of the many books in his office, buzz his secretary, and ask her to Xerox it. The copy invariably proved his memory unerring.

In point of fact, Moore does not have a photographic memory, it is just that he works very hard to memorize those words and documents which are essential to the cause of liberty. It is 95% perspiration.
