William remarked that he thought Joseph was a better father than he ever was (The Hand of God). Joseph always carried a silver lighter into his cases; he considered it good luck, and claimed he only lost a case when he left it at home. He later gave it to William, who, after the holocaust, loaned it to his own son as a token of luck for a crucial mission (The Hand of God). It was returned to him after the mission's success.

Before going to trial Joseph would aways break pencils before entering the courtroom as a reminder to "break preconceptions" and "work with what you had."
