One day our professor was discussing a particularly complicated concept. A pre-med student rudely interrupted to ask “Why do we have to study this stuff?”
“To save lives,” the professor responded and continued with the lecture.
A few minutes later the same student spoke up again. “So, how does physics save lives?” he persisted.
“It keeps the ignoramuses out of medical school,” replied the professor.
