"So you missed the exams. Big deal."
"It is a big deal."
"No it isn't. It's just a piece of paper, and nobody here gives a damn about that."
I started reading 'Water For Elephants' last night, and couldn't put it down since! I'm halfway through it, and can't wait to write a review about it. The previous quote is a fascinating one I came past as I read. Amazing how a few lines can degrade something that once seemed so important. It turns out books really are made out of magic.
