"I'm going out feet first," Chief Justice John Roberts said the other day.

Justice Souter was a model of collegiality & judicial restraint. He was also a model of how future justices should serve: 1. Sit on SCOTUS for limited time (~18 yrs) 2. Since you're still life-tenured, hear cases on other courts 3. Enjoy your old age 4. No post-death scramble

Probably the biggest Souter legacy is that his appointment turbocharged conservative legal activism, leading to the kind of vetting of nominees we see now, the bulldozing effort to build a 6-3 conservative majority, and ultimately the overturning of Roe v. Wade
