I met JJ again at a mathematics conference sponsored by Stanford University in Palo Alto, California. Just like the first time, he was sitting alone at a table in a corner of the hotel bar, gazing at me across the room with dark, inscrutable eyes.
As soon as I sat down, he pushed a piece of paper in my direction. “Here,” he said laconically. “For your students.”
The first thing we do, let’s kill all the lawyers.
William Shakespeare
Potius ignoratio iuris litigiosa est quam scientia.
Marcus Tullius Cicero
