Student: "... But, Sir... I don't have nearly enough power to do something like that!"
Prof: "That is true. In fact, I don't know of anyone with sufficient power for the task."
Student: "Doesn't that mean it's impossible?"
Prof: "Oh, no. Not at all! It simply means that it's not something you can do alone, using brute force. Remember, the only limits I have given you in this exercise are those of morality and common sense."

I don't know. It's probably not that funny or anything. Maybe it's just the hour. That and the immediate and random nature of that last response, which seriously came out of nowhere (at the beginning, I didn't even know they were in class) and yet still managed to simultaneously violate both limits with a single stroke.
Kudos, of a sort, to you, nameless and faceless voice in an imaginary crowd in the back of my head.
(Yes, this is what it's like to live in my head. It's no wonder Timmy's gone missing, is it?)
