Quote
Hobbes: Do you have an idea for your story yet? Calvin: No, I'm waiting for inspiration. C: You can't just turn on creativity like a faucet. You have to be in the right mood. H: What mood is that? C: Last-minute panic. » (Bill Watterson: The Calvin and Hobbes Tenth Anniversary Book)	Calvin: Here's another math problem I can't figure out. What's 9+4 ? Hobbes: Ooh, that's a tricky one. You have to use calculus and imaginary numbers for this. Calvin: IMAGINARY NUMBERS ?! Hobbes: You know, eleventeen, thirty-twelve, and all those. It's a little confusing at first. Calvin: How did YOU learn all this? You've never even gone to school! Hobbes: Instinct. Tigers are born with it. »
