“DYING IS NOT HOT By Celia the Dark Cool is no longer cool because cool is now hot, and school isn t school if you are skipping. Then the neighborhood is school and John, the creepy dropout guy is teaching. And it isn t cool because the cool kids stay in school, where the other cool kids tell them them how hot they are and they wouldn t want to miss a dance for cutting. Kids who skip school were never cool or hot but already dumped into the trashcan with leftover lunch pizza, bruised into a locker, asking their parents for extra lunch money so they can smoke and act like they never cared anyway. And skipping school s not cool but it is school because that s where they learn what the uncool learn about life and dying.”

It has revealed a symbiosis between all things that I never knew existed.”

“I liked learning things. How numbers worked together to explain the stars. How molecules made the world. All the ugly and wonderful things people had done in the last two thousand years.”
“Very often it has come to my mind what men of learning there were formerly throughout England..and how nowadays...we would have to seek them outside...Thanks be to God Almighty that we now have any supply of teachers at all!...As often as you can, free yourself from worldly affairs so that you may apply that wisdom which God gave you wherever you can.
