From The Washington Post:
The acclimation of a new justice was described by Justice John H.
Clarke, who served nearly a century ago, as a "familiar Washington
tradition" in which the newcomer wonders: "How did I ever attain such a
place?" That is followed at the end of the first year with a different
question, he said: "How did these other men ever come here?"
It has the ring of truth, no?
