Science News for Students


“It is impossible to live without failing at something, unless you live so cautiously that you might as well not have lived at all–in which case, you fail by default.”

- J.K. Rowling

Things to Ponder:                                                                   

 

  • If you have to tell people you have swag, even once, you clearly don’t.
  • Only you can prevent forest fires. So if there’s a forest fire, it is all your fault.
  • The peanut is neither a pea, nor a nut.
  • You can pick your friends, you can pick your nose, but you can’t pick your friend’s nose.
  • Say no to crack. Whether that means “don’t do drugs” or “pull up your pants”, this is useful to hear.
  • If you find a worm in your apple, be thankful you found the whole thing and not just half.
  • If it sticks and shouldn’t, use WD-40. If it doesn’t stick and should, use duct tape.
  • Being the best in the world is less valuable than being the best for the world.
  • If you ever drop your keys in lava, let them go. Because, man, they’re gone.
