    (Mr. Friedman) was always kind of dopey.
    Actually, Bob is very smart. Too smart to be a teacher. It's why he doesn't connect with the stuxents.

    A lot of people ask me where music is going today. I think it's going in short phrases. If you listen, anybody with an ear can hear that. Music is always changing. It changes because of the times and the technology that's available, the material that things are made of, like plastic cars instead of steel. So when you hear an accident today it sounds different, not all the metal colliding like it was in the forties and fifties. Musicians pick up sounds and incorporate that into their playing, so the music that they make will be different.

    A poem to Raymond, whom everybody loves, originally composed on a waterproof smartphone in a sea of love, which was hidden under the pile of garbage that my bum-pals that have no pen names, or pen-pals, or names, for that matter, brought to me as an offering on the 1st of April 1877, exactly 111 years and 7 months before I was brought forth to this world, because some anonymous prophet told them this would bring luck, joy, happiness, food, and, of course – shelter from evil (he was lying):

    If it's fantasy you seek,
    to E. Feist then, you must speak.
    All he writes is all there is,
    for his words, they move the seas.
    .
    I would write, but I know naught.
    In my heart there is a draught.
    Hidden desert - golden sands.
    Few my love can ever stand.

    And so far I've talked to many,
    a reply - will there be any?
    I know - not, yet I know naught,
    all to question, I was taught...

    So I learn, I borrow wisdom,
    from the great, the ones with vision.
    They can teach, the few that grasp,
    concepts from a long forgotten past.

  • Smart Quote #10

    After everything I'd lived through, I was not going to be reduced to a one-sentence definition.

    Maggie Stiefvater
  • Smart Quote #11

    After I slid down the wall for the third time, breaking every single fingernail in the process, I finally figured out that Thor was hollering at me. I turned to see him standing in the bed of the truck. Which, of course, made much more sense, than pretending to be Spiderman.

    It's a humbling moment when you realize your dog is smarter than you.

    AFTER SCHOOL SPECIAL


    Dear Mr. Schneider,
    I attended your elementary
    School almost thirty years ago
    And I'm very sure that
    You will remember
    Me.

    My name is Suzy.
    I'm that hyperactive girl
    From the Egyptian family
    Who used to always play dead
    On the playground during
    Recess.

    You used to keep me
    After school a lot,
    And then my father would
    Force me to make the long
    Walk home in the cold or rain.
    Sometimes I would arrive
    After dark.

    I'm writing to tell you
    That I was bored as a kid.
    I was bored by your curriculum
    And the way I was always taught a
    Bunch of useless
    Junk.

    I did not like being locked up
    In a prison of scheduled time
    Learning about irrelevant material,
    And watching belittling cartoons and
    Shows approved by academia that
    Made me even more
    Bored.

    As a kid
    Who was constantly
    Growing, evolving, and
    Being shaped by all around me,
    I wanted to travel,
    See other kids
    In the world like me,
    To understand what was going
    On amongst us and around us,
    To know what we were here for
    And what was our real purpose
    For existence.

    I have some questions
    I would like to ask you, Mr. Schneider,
    Now that I know that you are no
    Longer a school principal,
    But the new superintendent
    Of the entire school
    District.

    I want to know
    Why racism today
    Was not clearly explained to me
    Even though we covered events
    That happened long ago.
    I want to know why you
    Never shared with us
    Why other countries
    Never liked us,
    Why we are taught to compete,
    To be divided in teams,
    And why conformity is associated
    With popularity, while
    Eccentricity is considered
    Undesirable?

    I want to know
    Why my cafeteria lunches
    Were slammed packed
    With bottom-tier
    Processed junk food
    Only suitable
    For pigs?
    And why is it
    That whenever a bully
    Slammed a kid into a locker for
    His lunch money,
    Nobody explained to us
    That egotism, selfishness and greed
    Were the seeds of
    War?

    I want to know
    Why we were never taught
    To stick up for each other,
    To love one another, and that
    Segregation sorted by the
    Occupations of our fathers,
    The neighborhoods we lived in, our houses,
    Choices of sport, wealth, clothing,
    Color of our skin
    And the texture of our hair
    Should never, ever
    Divide us?

    And lastly,
    I want to know why
    Is it that whenever I pledged
    Allegiance to the flag,
    I was never told that I was
    Actually hailing to the
    Chief?

    You used to say that
    I was a troubled child,
    A misfit, and that I needed
    Obedience training,
    But you never acknowledged that
    I was the fastest runner in the district
    And that I took the school
    To State and Nationals to compete
    In the Spelling Bee among kids
    Grades higher than me.
    And that it was me,
    Who won that big trophy
    That sat in your office when you
    Used to detain me for hours
    And tell me I was no
    Good.

    Mr. Schneider,
    If we are not taught truths as kids,
    Then how do you expect us to
    Grow up to be truthful citizens?
    If we are only being taught the written way,
    And it has not shown positive effects
    In societies of yesterday or today,
    Then how can we progress as a
    United and compassionate
    Nation?
    What good is it,
    To memorize the histories
    Of our forefathers,
    Without learning what could be
    Gained from their lessons and mistakes
    To improve our future
    Tomorrows?


    And finally,
    I want to thank you;
    For I know you have a tough job
    Dealing with rebellious children like me.
    Your job of mass processing and boxing
    The young minds of America has not been an easy one,
    And I congratulate you
    On your recent promotion.
    But I sincerely want to thank you,
    Thank you,
    And thank you,
    For always pointing out
    That I was
    Different.

    Almost every time I speak to teenagers, particularly young female students who want to talk to me about feminism, I find myself staggered by how much they have read, how creatively they think and how curiously bullshit-resistant they are. Because of the subjects I write about, I am often contacted by young people and I see it as a part of my job to reply to all of them - and doing so has confirmed a suspicions I’ve had for some time. I think that the generation about to hit adulthood is going to be rather brilliant.

    Young people getting older is not, in itself, a fascinating new cultural trend. Nonetheless the encroaching adulthood and the people who grew up in a world where expanding technological access collided with the collapse of the neoliberal economic consensus is worth paying attention to. Because these kids are smart, cynical and resilient, and I don’t mind saying that they scare me a little.

    Always follow your heart ... But take your brain with you too.... Be smart.

    Ziad K. Abdelnour
  • Smart Quote #15

    Always praise your kid even if he/she is unresponsive to learning. By insulting them or constantly criticizing them, you will only push them away and make them feel inadequate around other kids. Have faith that your child's brain is an evolving planet that rotates at its own speed. It will naturally be attracted to or repel certain subjects. Be patient. Just as there are ugly ducklings that turn into beautiful swans, there are rebellious kids and slow learners that turn into serious innovators and hardcore intellectuals.

    Are there moments when our brains are not exercising?” I questioned. “That would be almost like being brain dead...

    Vann Chow
  • Smart Quote #17

    Are you smarter than my brain in a jar? Have a pickle while you ponder it.

    Jarod Kintz
  • Smart Quote #18

    As a matter of fact, yeah, they were foolproof. The problem is that you don't have to protect yourself against fools. You have to protect yourself against people like me.

    Jeffery Deaver

  • Smart Quote #26

    But I am a just man, even to my enemy—and I will acknowledge, beforehand, that they are cleverer brains than I thought them.

    Wilkie Collins
  • Smart Quote #27

    But Johannes had said, Politeness is something you owe other people, because when you show a little courtesy, everything becomes easier and better. But first and foremost, it's something you owe yourself. You are David.
