A linguistics professor was lecturing to his class one day. “In english,” he said, “A double negative forms a positive. In some languages, such as Russian, a double negative is still a negative. However, there is no language wherein a double positive can form a negative.” - A voice from the back of the room piped up, “Yeah, right.”

Universities are very familiar with bright, qualified school-leavers who arrive and then go into shock on finding that biology or physics isn’t quite what they’ve been taught so far. ‘Yes, but you needed to understand that,’ they are told, 'so that now we can tell you why it isn’t exactly true.’ Discworld teachers know this, and use it to demonstrate why universities are truly storehouses of knowledge: students arrive from school confident that they know very nearly everything, and they leave years later certain that they know practically nothing. Where did the knowledge go in the meantime? Into the university, of course, where it is carefully dried and stored.

Everywhere I go, I am asked if I think university stifles writers. My opinion is that it doesn’t stifle enough of them.

Lyric Poem

Milk it for all it’s worth

I walk alone, think of home

Looking back at me, I’ve seen I’ve never really got it right

Conversion, software version seven-point-O

I’ve been changin’ but you’ll never see me now

Screaming on the inside

Change my attempt, good intentions

It starts with pain, followed by hate

One thing, I don’t know why

A stranger asked me where you coming from

Help me if you can, it’s just that this is not the way I’m wired

Got it all too high, got it figured out

In this farewell, there’s no blood, there’s no alibi

Never home to fulfill her needs

I think it’s time for a change            

It wasn’t meant to be, this thing with you and me

Hold me now I need to feel relief

I got my finger on the trigger

If you only knew

All alone I pierce the chain
