A fun thing to do is count the number of times that Professor Castro says 'right' during class. The record so far is 172. Nice!

Quotes

"It's like...how do you call it...low riders?"

"By the authority vested in me by a tie..."

During DEs II:

"If I wore a jacket that goes down to here (gesture to waist) and another that goes down to here (gestures to knees) and another that goes down to here (shins) then eventually you will not see me anymore. But if I wear only finitely many of these, you can still see my toes!"

"Then what do I do? I order another tequila, right? Right? Right?"

"Let's put it bigger than Y. No, let's put it bigger than Y+1, to excite you!"

" Any of you has physics inclinations?" pause "No? Good....gooood..."

"It is a very simple proof. There is not much concept there, so it might be confusing."
