Quote from Mary in Portrait of Tommy as an Old Man
Mary: I don't know why I even bother to lecture. Most of my students just copy their term papers out of the encyclopedia, anyway. Dick: I'm sure that's not true. Mary: This one's photocopied! I swear, sometimes this job just sucks the life out of me. Dick: Do you ever wonder if maybe you made a wrong choice in life? You know, with your job? Mary: No! No. I always wanted to teach half-baked morons at a second-rate university. Dick: And here you are. Mary: Here I am.
