I have NO CLUE what you're talking about. Student: -under the curve... Schwartz: That's silly! Student: What about the asymptotes... Schwartz: *We're not there yet.* Shhhhhhhh!

//Talking about jerk (3rd derivative of position) in analysis Rose: So I guess you could take fourth and fifth derivatives of position, but that's not really helpful. Maybe you'd want to know how fast you're..jerking... //class laughs Rose (realizing what he said): Oh, I went there. //more laughs

Rose: So we just took the derivative.  Taking the derivative is like sex.  The hard part is simplifying the derivative, which is like pillow talk. //Later, Rose and Paul are simplifying a long derivative together Rose: This is some of the best pillow talk I've ever had.
