Their eyes get all big. It's awesome. I love little kids, man. They're the cutest”
“I was given baby doll toys myself, and they proved a stark reminder that my life was expected to revolve around childbearing - just as my mom's had before me, and her mom's had before her.”
“Nothing in education is so astonishing as the amount of ignorance it accumulates in the form of inert facts.”
