And what is good, Phaedrus,
and what is not good…
Need we ask anyone
to tell us these things?

Eyes on the Prize Dialogue from “Good Will Hunting” — Will: He used to just put a belt,
Location, Location, Location

Part III —
From the website of
Noam D. Elkies,
Harvard mathematician:
| SLUMMERVILLE |
| Somerville, |
| Where the livin’ is sleazy: |
| Folk are humpin’ |
| And the chillun is high. |
| Oh yo’ daddy’s rich, |
| ‘Cos yo’ ma is good lookin’ |
| So hush, ugly baby, |
| Or I’ll make you cry. |
[“Parody by Noam D. Elkies;
not the original lyrics,
of course.”]
