… is from page 2 of Clint Bolick’s essay “The Role of the Judiciary,” which is featured in the Spring 2018 Cato’s Letter:

I call the first half of that equation “judicial activism” – in other words, a judiciary that is active in holding the other two branches of government to their limited and defined powers and in upholding the rights of the people.
