Souter Quotes

[Bradley Joondeph]

"Justice SCALIA's dissent is certainly the work of a gladiator, but he thrusts at lions of his own imagining."
 
Opinion of the Court (Souter, J.), Board of Educ. of Kiryas Joel Village Sch. Dist. v. Grumet, 512 U.S. 687, 708 (1994).

Let me piggyback on Earl's question and ask, can anyone suggest any famous quotations from Souter.  I am asking for possible use in a future edition of the Oxford Dictionary of American Legal Quotations, or, in the unlikely chance that he said something really memorable, in a future edition of The Yale Book of Quotations.

Aside from his discussion in  of precedent in Casey, can any of the
Souter fans out there point me to an opinion or opinions that you
view as memorable, outstanding, etc.?
