Besedilo je govor, ki ga je imel avtor, sodnik na Evropskem sodišču za človekove pravice, na slovesnosti ob 25-letnici Ustave Republike Slovenije, 15. decembra 2016 na Ustavnem sodišču Republike Slovenije. Avtor v Ustavi vidi procesni dokument, ki mora neposredno usmerjati sodno odločanje v posameznih primerih, prav tako pa pojasnjuje pomen, ki ga ima Ustavno sodišče za delovanje pravnega sistema. Ob tem oriše ključne kvalitete sodnega odločanja, kot so sistemska neobremenjenost, neodvisnost, odprtost in pravičnost. V zvezi z Ustavo poudarja tudi ponos, zadovoljstvo in spoštovanje, ki so lahko navdih za aktualni čas.
