Notable and Quotable: Nathaniel Gorton

"Here you are, an admired, successful, professional actor with a long lasting marriage, two apparently healthy, resilient children, more money than you could possibly need, a beautiful home in sunny Southern California — a fairy tale life, yet you stand me before a convicted felon. And for what? For the inexplicable desire to grasp even more."

These words of wisdom come from Judge Nathaniel Gorton in his comments to actress Lori Laughlin during her sentencing for participating in a college admissions scandal. The Full House and When Calls the Heart star chose to made some poor decisions based on entitlement. And they cost her a two month prison sentence. Every sin comes with consequences. Lord, have mercy on us! How we need you, Jesus!
