" I mean, when you think about it, it’s a little fucked up that teachers think they get to dictate what you think about. It’s not enough if you just sit there quietly and let them teach. It’s like they think they have a right to control your mind.
I don’t want to think about the War of 1812. I don’t want to know what the hell was so impressive to a bunch of freaking sailors.
What I want is to sit here and think about Blue. "
