Why would anyone want to be a lawyer?

It turns out that I don't want to be a lawyer for high moral reasons, or even low money-grubbing reasons. No, after deep personal reflection, it turns out I want to be a lawyer because I have a crush on Cicero, Marcus Tullius himself. I adore him and want to be like him. This would look good in fifty years if it ever came out. "What first lead you to the study of the law?" "Oh, I had a crush on an argumentative dead man." So now I'm going to put it on a blog where, conceivably, anybody could read it.
