Connection To Principal Angles
Assuming that and have zero expected values, i.e., their covariance matrices and can be viewed as Gram matrices in an inner product, see Covariance#Relationship_to_inner_products, for the columns of and, correspondingly. The definition of the canonical variables and is equivalent to the definition of principal vectors for the pair of subspaces spanned by the columns of and with respect to this inner product. The canonical correlations is equal to the cosine of principal angles.

“It may comfort you to know that if your child reaches the age of eleven or twelve and you have a good bond or relationship, no matter how dramatic adolescence becomes, you children will probably turn out all right and want some form of connection to you in adulthood.”
—Charlotte Davis Kasl (20th century)
“The virtue of art lies in detachment, in sequestering one object from the embarrassing variety. Until one thing comes out from the connection of things, there can be enjoyment, contemplation, but no thought.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“This place is the Devil, or at least his principal residence, they call it the University, but any other appellation would have suited it much better, for study is the last pursuit of the society; the Master eats, drinks, and sleeps, the Fellows drink, dispute and pun, the employments of the undergraduates you will probably conjecture without my description.”
—George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)
