Hey guys! So we've all been neglecting the blog due to busy lives (what?? lives are more important than blogging?!) but I'd like to get it rolling again.
Hope everything is going great for you guys - Halloween preparations, birthday celebrations (Happy 25th Gus!), animal responsibilities and whatnot. My life is homework-laden but pretty darn awesome right now.
Now that we've gotten that out of the way!
Another round of Quotes from Classes, as I am doing homework right now and really only have time to do this kind of a post. But I've been meaning to do it again for a while, as the awesome quotes have been piling up recently...
"I got to page 10 and I threw up...I couldn't do it, not even for money." (professor, on attempting to write trashy romance novels.)
"Rhett Butler...oh I was in love with him! Oh well, you're only 15 once."
"Do you know anybody who kisses doorknobs? When I was younger there was a rumor kissing doorknobs was the best way to practice."
"Comma abuse - ahhh, poor little things. Think about writing an essay from the point of view of a comma - oh the misuse! This is what happens when you teach grammar for too long."
"That's wrong, but it's wonderful. Leave it be."
"Are you some kind of nut, or are you a brit?"
"Just astonishing vulgarity!"
"The trouble with sentences like this is that you haven't said anything. But that's OK in this class."
"You never know who you're going to have sex with in space!"
"This kind of crazy person that peddles things from the inside of a winnebago."
"Don't we all have one of those inside us?"
(my professor, disdainfully)"Quentin Tarantino is a movie director. He isn't writing fiction."
"Each ass cheek is now clinging to the ass."
"I remember I had a halloween costume that said "inflammable" on the tag. My parents thought it was fireproof, so I set it on fire. It burned."
(dreamily) "Maybe I'm just the boy who laughs."
"We all have basic needs, like food and sex....and water..."
"In some cultures, a poet will go to war and say a poem and the other side will stop fighting and be all 'whoa, that's a good poem."
"And aren't we all in danger of making choices that result in us eating our children?"
"If I could talk about whales..."
Adam: "I wanted to talk about it beforehand, cause I was afraid William would think it was frivolous and we wouldn't get to talk about it."
William (just walking in): "Adam, everything you say is frivolous and I don't want to talk about it."
"But people laugh at hiccups...do they laugh at lovers?"
"This is why your dad needs a young man."
"You one-eyed many-armed ugly thing, I'm going to put you deep down in the earth cause I hate you!"
"Maybe it's like, they're filling holes in each other...oh wait..."
"In your academic opinion, there's a butt on it."
"If I was lying in a field with Socrates and I pointed to a cloud and said 'that cloud looks like a snail' I feel like Socrates would say 'No, that cloud totally sucks.'"
"If you add a 't' to 'manic' it's like RO-mantic."
"Socrates could have any boy he wants."
"He's possessed by extra-terrestrial beings! Oh wait...they're not aliens."
"It reminds me of people who get swept up in the 'save the whales' campaigns..."
"I have all this wisdom, you should give me favors!"
"What a great pick-up line!"
"So, that was a bunch of things I think about."
"Revolution...happens...very...quietly."
"Grouping off makes me feel like we're in pre-school."
professor: "You ARE in preschool."
professor (on courage): "Try that harder rock climb, or try that fancier dance move."
Stay tuned for November's quotes!
