    Some humans would do anything to see if it was possible to do it. If you put a large switch in some cave somewhere, with a sign on it saying 'End-of-the-World Switch. PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH', the paint wouldn't even have time to dry.

    I have often wondered why teachers work so hard to reward kids for effort when in reality it counts for Jack shit.

    Are we misleading them?

    ‘Three out of twenty,’ he says with a pen. ‘PS,’ he says, ‘Eradicate your flippancy, decide whether you shall dedicate to studies, or seriously, leave the academy. By the way, that green ink of yours, are you mad?’
