Schwartz: My precalc class [when I was in high school] was a waste of time. I was a freshman and everyone else was either a junior or a senior. It was *awful* until everyone figured out that if they gave me milkshakes I'd tell them if their answers were right.

Schwartz: "I can't do this problem because it's against my religion" is not a valid excuse on my tests. In my room, math is your religion.

//We're in complex, trying to define interior, exterior, and boundary points of regions in terms of "epsilon balls" and "punctured epsilon balls" (yes, these are real terms). //The class is going back and forth over which of the balls in which of the three definitions should be punctured. They ultimately decide that none of the balls should be punctured. Brian: Moral of the story: don't puncture your balls. //Later, Stein walks in because we're making a lot of noise Stein: This class is so loud. Schwartz: That's wonderfully ironic. [We can hear Stein's loud stat activities very clearly across the hall.] Stein: I'm trying to teach, and all I can hear is Arnold Mong yelling "balls, balls, balls!"
