“Forget about them. If you don't feel like going to school, don't. Don't force yourself. School can be a real nightmare. I know. You have these brown-nosing idiots for classmates and these teachers who act like they own the world. Eighty percent of them are deadbeats or sadists, or both. Plus all those ridiculous rules. The whole system's designed to crush you, and so the goodie-goodies with no imagination get good grades. I bet that hasn't changed a bit.”

“I do not concern myself with these protocols of static perceptions that serve only to categorize people with egocentric judgments and limit the profundity of the human spirit. 
Cause-and-effect is the basis of my education leading me to an essence that far transcends the limitations of your societal constructs.”

“Суспільство, в якому активно насаджується учнівська неземна любов до навчальних закладів, не може бути розумним суспільством. Справді, школу неможливо любити. Вона починається як присилування, продовжується як звичка, а вже після кількох років її починають сприймати як потребу. Але не як потребу, яку можна любити! А чи буде хтось освіченим чи неосвіченим, узагалі не залежить від його любові до школи.”
