Barbara Oakley
“The number one thing I stress when students come to see me is that there is a direct connection between your hand and your brain, and the act of rewriting and organizing your notes is essential to breaking large amounts of information down into smaller digestible chunks. I have many students who prefer to type their notes in a Word document or on slides, and when these students are struggling, the first thing I recommend is to quit typing and start writing. In every case, they perform better on the next section of material.”
― Barbara Oakley, A Mind for Numbers: How to Excel at Math and Science

Jane Washington
“How many marks do you think you’ll get for treason?”

“One from the Scholar to make my skin fairer, one from the Weaver to make me taller, one from the King to make me fatter, one from the Inquisitor to make me stronger, and one from the Warmaster to fix whatever it is he doesn’t like about me.”

“Probably your general attitude. He gets at least a dozen offers of marriage a week; he doesn’t understand what you don’t like about him.”

“Probably his general attitude.”
― Jane Washington, A Tempest of Shadows
