    i quoted exams, not learning . i've never been a fan of literature either though my definition of not liking literature refers to learning shakespeare plays etc.

    But am a big fan of the classics regarding novels, shakespeare plays just bored me to hell when i was reading them.

    I don't know Shakespeare had a devilish sense of humor and was considered very rude for his time "Even now as you wait, the black ram is tupping your white ewe" from Othello is just one example, and he had a flair for making fun of his characters. If you get past the middle english so much of literature afterwards owes itself at least something to his structure or literary devices.
    Name one other author or playwright who is still so commonly quoted even today "A rose by any other name would smell as sweet?", "All the world is a stage, and all the people players".
    Now back to the usual silliness........

    Chemistry is for coonts and drug barons.

    Literature is a proper subject.

    Quoted by Homerathus Simpsonala and a quote I use on many occasions in my life "trying is the first step to failure, the lesson is never try".

    But on a more serious note- yeah I agree majority of old quotes from playwrights are shakespeare but there's a quote which I still use very often from Rime of the Ancient Mariner. That was an epic poem "water water everywhere and not a drop to drink".

    No wai!!


    Literature is for arses that can't seem to put 2 and 2 together, and who feel someone gives a shit about their feelings about a story some bored-ass bloke wrote 400 years ago, because he had nothing better to do and the lager had just ran out in his fridge.

    Chemistry - Now THAT'S a subject.. Makes wars and co. way more interesting.. Nuclear bombs and co.. Orsum

    Numerations are overrated. Meanwhile, you want to blast us all to kingdom come...

    Oh well, I'll wait under the willow tree with my novel, thank you very much.
