out there waiting to be discovered.
PARTNER: I think you could show me some appreciation.
WILL: A little appreciation? Do you know how easy this is for me? Do you have any fuckin' idea how easy this brief is? This is a fuckin' joke. And I'm sorry you can't do this. I really am because I wouldn't have to fuckin' sit here and watch you fumble around and fuck it up.
PARTNER: Then you'd have more time to sit around and poast instead, wouldn't you?
WILL: You're right. This is probably a total waste of my time. (lights brief on fire)
PARTNER: (desperately saving the brief's remnants)You're right, Will. I can't write this brief. But you can, and when it comes to that it's only about...it's just a handful of scholars in the world who can tell the difference between you and me. But I'm one of them.
WILL: Thanks.

So if I asked you about legal theory, you'd probably give me the skinny on every treatise ever written. Marshall, you know a lot about him. Life's work, founding fathers , him and Jefferson, sexual orientations, the whole works, right? But I'll bet you can't tell me what it smelled like at the Constitutional Convention. You've never actually sniffed 55 scholars who have arrived mostly on horseback to a room without air conditioning. If I ask you about modern legal scholarship, you'd probably give me a syllabus about your personal favorites. You may have even cited Posner a few times. But you can't tell me what it feels like to dance the dance of the prancing scholar. You're a tough kid. And I'd ask you about jurisprudence, you'd probably throw Holmes at me, right, "the life of the law has not been logic; it has been experience." But you've never clerked for SCOTUS. You've never submitted to Scalia a draft that says “it is a truth well settled” when nobody has thought about it before at all. I'd ask you about legal obligations, you'd probably quote me some Cardozo, “the punctilio of an honor the most sensitive”. But you've never entered into a joint venture and been totally vulnerable. Worked opposite a firm that could level you with prestige alone, who could make or break your career with a rejected term in a redline. And you wouldn't know what it's like to be a corporate bitch, to be forever at the office, through anything, through your wife’s cancer and your mom’s funeral, to finalize the reps and warranties. And you wouldn't know about smashing the pharmacy window to cop some addies at 3 am. You don't know about real work because it only happens when you obliterate your identity in favor of the law. And look at you... I don't see an intelligent, confident man... I see a cocky, scared shitless kid. But you're a genius bro. No one denies that. No one could possibly understand the depths of you. But you presume to know everything about me because you saw my comments to your brief, and you called three billable hours into question.
You're an HLS grad right? You think I know the first thing about your 1L section-cest, what human rights you claimed to care about, which professors you sucked up to, because I watched Legally Blonde? Does that encapsulate you? Personally... I don't give a shit about all that, because you know what, I can't learn anything from you, I can't read in some fuckin' book.
