6. Reminds me of something I read yesterday in a Kagan related article
Excerpt:

The quotation she selected to run with her photo in the Hunter College high school yearbook in 1977 was from former Supreme Court Justice Felix Frankfurter.

It read: "Government is itself an art, one of the subtlest of arts,"

Kagan also showed a lighter side by selecting a quotation from Mark Twain's "Huckleberry Finn:" "Persons attempting to find a motive in this narrative will be prosecuted; persons attempting to find a moral in it will be banished; persons attempting to find a plot in it will be shot."
