Professor Terguson:
You remember that thing we had about 30 years ago called the Korean conflict? And how we failed to achieve victory? How come we didn't cross the 38th parallel and push those rice-eaters back to the Great Wall of China? [rips a desk apart] Then take the f***ing wall apart [shouts] brick by brick and nuke them back into the stone age forever?! Tell me why! How come? Say it! Say it!
Thornton Melon:
[incensed] All right, I'll say it. 'Cause Truman was too much of a P*SSY WIMP to let MacArthur go in there and BLOW OUT THOSE COMMIE BASTARDS!
Professor Terguson:
Good answer. Good answer. I like the way you think. I'm gonna be watching you.
Thornton Melon:
[chuckling to his classmates] Good teacher. He really seems to care. About what I have no idea.
