“Alright, then. You’re assigned to write a 5 page paper about the Marquess of Halifax, due tomorrow.”
“That book should not be lightly put aside. It should be flung with great force!” (Attributed to Dorothy Parker)

Who is Marcus Halifax and why does he talk funny?
I told that to a teacher once & got a weeks’ worth of detention
