I simply don't believe that dull lifeless assignments are the measures of a person's soul .I want one ,one meaningful work from you .I want you to look in the mirror ,listen to your gut and make an image that speaks to the real you .What you care about ,What you believe .It can be big ,it can be small. It can be painted in bat shit. As long as it's honest and fearless .But! But ,the caveat! If I smell a rat , if you didn't find something you've never had the courage to say before.I don't pass you .You don't got out of here .All your work down the drain .Now,go ,get out of here.

The Art of Getting By quotes

  • Sally Howe: Do you have any friends, George ?

    George Zinavoy: I'm kind of a misanthrope. Not a choice, just a fact.

  • George Zinavoy: My favorite part of the book is how the town's layout us described from the perspective of a bee traveling from one side of town to the other. It's so visual. So, I guess what Hardy's doing is aligning his point of view not with an all-seeing God but with an insect: the tiniest, humblest creature in nature. Which is pretty Romantic.

    Ms. Herman: I think you just found your term paper, George.
