  1. “So there was an interest I had there in the business and in Wall Street and frankly in New York. Like the Frank Symatris song, you know, if you can make it near, you can make it anywhere. And so I wanted to, in some ways, I was more driven by the idea, come to New York, work at a top-notch law firm. That will be a way to learn about business as well as business law. And essentially along the way, I realized I loved the clients who were making deals complicated financial investments. Know using numbers, accounting, analysis, fundamental, as well as accounting analysis to figure out what's the right price to pay for something. But I was just as a lawyer, just an observer on the one hand. Not making any decisions, really. And so at some point, I realized I thought I would be more interested in that and I thought I would be good at it.”

  2. “Right, so my parents are both academics and knew absolutely nothing about Wall Street and only a little bit about business generally. I, on the other hand, was always interested in it, probably not in a very educated way, but probably from things like the movies. I did grow up in the Silicon Valley. But my Silicon Valley was Hewlett Packard.”

  3. “Know I was just getting to the point in my career where I wanted to sort of give back to the Harvard Law School. And at the time, she was the dean. So she talk about a storied career. She was the dean. And so the last time I saw her on a one-on-one situation, it was like, you know, talking about, let's do something law and business. And my whole issue was that lawyers are, the vast majority of them are consulting in some way for businesses. Understand the business at all And it reduces the quality of their work. And she was very into it. And then I don't know, a couple months later, she's nominated for the Supreme Court. So that's all over.”

  4. “Co-clerk together and we went to law school together and we served on the Larview together, and she's an amazing person. It's very weird to have a friend who becomes a Supreme Court just.”

  5. “Yeah, it was a storybook career. And if I had another opportunity, I probably would have tested out what the legal world would have been like. But where many of my friends still are today, including Justice Alina Kagan.”
