Merry Christmas



EXAMS ARE DONE!!!!!...
now to wait for my grades...

"The fatal tendency to be satisfied with words instead of trying to understand things...

...to learn phrases by heart, so that they may prove a refuge in time of need - exists, as a rule, even in children; and the tendency lasts on into manhood, making the knowledge of many learned persons to consist in mere verbiage."
- Arthur Schopenhauer, Education

"...people today are so accustomed to pretentious nonsense that they see nothing amiss in reading without understanding, and many of them at length discover that they can without difficulty write in like manner themselves and win applause for it. And so it perpetuates itself."
- G. A. Wells, 1991
