You can have yourself
a three-course meal from one dog.

:41:03
Start with your canine crudites...
:41:06
go to your Fido flambe
for main course...

:41:08
and for dessert,
a Pekingese parfait.

:41:11
And you can pick your teeth
with a little paw."

:41:17
Why do I stand up here?
Anybody?

:41:19
- To feel taller.
- No! Thank you for playing, Mr Dalton.

:41:23
I stand upon my desk
to remind myself...

:41:26
that we must constantly look at things
in a different way.

:41:35
You see, the world looks
very different from up here.

:41:38
You don't believe me?
Come see for yourselves. Come on.

:41:42
Come on!
:41:44
Just when you think you know something,
you have to look at it in another way.

:41:47
Even though it may seem silly
or wrong, you must try!

:41:52
Now, when you read, don't just consider
what the author thinks...

:41:54
consider what you think.
:41:58
Boys, you must strive to find
your own voice.

:42:02
Because the longer you wait to begin,
the less likely you are
to find it at all.

:42:06
Thoreau said, "Most men lead lives
of quiet desperation."

:42:09
Don't be resigned to that.
Break out!

:42:13
Don't just walk off the edge
like lemmings. Look around you.

:42:16
There! There you go, Mr Priske.
Thank you! Yes!

:42:21
Dare to strike out
and find new ground.

:42:26
Now, in addition to your essays,
I would like you to compose a poem
of your own, an original work.

:42:36
That's right! You have to deliver it
aloud in front of the class on Monday.

:42:42
Bon chance, gentlemen.
:42:45
Mr Anderson?
:42:47
Don't think that I don't know that this
assignment scares the hell out of you,
you mole.
