“The number one thing I stress when students come to see me is that there is a direct connection between your hand and your brain, and the act of rewriting and organizing your notes is essential to breaking large amounts of information down into smaller digestible chunks.

In every case, they perform better on the next section of material.”

Scrooge, former leader of the Rebellion Raiders street gang that once boasted of having some ten thousand members”

“The numbing effects of scrolling down an endless newsfeed are both the problem and its own relief. Over time, this works to delirious effect. Periodically, after long projects or particularly lengthy binges, I feel saturated and dissociate. No longer able to process information, I let my unread messages pile up in my inbox and notifications from friends accumulate whilst I lie for hours on my sofa during the weekends, unable to do anything, but unable to do nothing either.”

“The numbing mind-ream of knowing you're alone not because people won't accept you but because you find so little worth accepting.
