“I must endure, fighting the temptation simply to become slack-jawed, like most of my school "peers" (they wish!), who will themselves into a collective, vacant, trancelike state for the duration of each class. (Although I sometimes secretly envy their ability to empty their minds completely for a full fifty minutes, reanimating only at the sound of a bell, like Pavlov's dogs. At which point they bark and yip about the hallways until classes start again. . . .)” — Beth Fantaskey
