The other motives I had to stick it out were that I couldn't do all that much with just a A.B. in political science and I couldn't stand the idea of going back home feeling defeated and a failure if I quit.
I'm glad that I didn't quit, even though my law career has developed in ways that I didn't expect or intend when I started out.
