"There's this old saying that, if you aren't……" — Bernhard Schlink
"There's this old saying that, if you aren't particularly gifted in natural sciences, if you don't want to become a teacher or pastor or doctor, and don't know what else to do, then you become a lawyer. But I've never regretted it."
