    Default Mathematically Speaking

    A high-school geometry teacher started a lesson on triangles by reading a theorem.

    "If an angle is an exterior angle of a triangle, then its measure is greater than the
    measure of either of its corresponding remote interior angles."

    He noticed that one student wasn't taking notes and asked him why.

    "Well," the student replied sincerely, "I was waiting for you to start speaking English."

    Forgive your enemies, but never, ever forget their names.
    The stupid neither forgive nor forget; the naïve forgive and forget; the wise forgive but never forget.

    The only one I remember is "The angle of the dangle is directly proportional to the heat of the meat."

    Enough is enough, more than enough is too much.
