• “Any diode will emit light… once…”
• “This isn’t girl-scout camp”
• “So we take this sophomore and throw him off the top of a building of height 100 meters, and…”
• “Vectors are independent”
• “…And I kept tellin’ him… ‘You’re taking out a hundred times more than what you put in’, but he just wouldn’t believe me… He kept talking about FDR and all that nonsense”
• “Don’t you guys have to draw those silly unit circle thingies with crayolas and sparklers?”
• “I won’t mention Justin’s name”
• “Jane does work on Tarzan, and…”
• “No matter if it’s a tennis ball or a battleship, if you throw it at the same velocity it will go the same distance…”
• “So if I drop this tennis ball on Will’s head like so…”
• “So I start throwin’ punches at Hank here… Whoa… Sorry there Hank, but you’ve gotta roll with the punches…”
• “So if I throw my tinsnips at you…”
• “So what are we talkin’ about here? 2300 dollars? Cans of peaches?”

• Justin: “It’s cause, it’s cause, like… gravity’s pulling on the car harder at the bottom of the hill… or something”
  Kastrop: “Okay… that’s true… but the ratio of the height of the hill over the radius of the planet Earth is so small that it’s roughly equivalent to your grade… or something”
• “I just wanna make sure we’re both on the same page… that would be the right page…”
• “I know they’re heavy, but this is also a P.E. credit…”
• “So when we have motion in two directions, it’s just double your pleasure…”
• “Look around at the things in here that aren’t moving. They all don’t move.”
• “So if I just tell you all to get up and run as fast as you can into that wall over there…”
