This from Ph.D. Comics, by the inimitable Jorge Cham.
Eerily accurate. I used to say this: "I will change the world with Old English!"
Then it was "Changing the world one dead language at a time!"
Then it was "Changing the academy, one Kalamazoo at a time!"
Occasionally, it has been "Not saying something dumb in class, one day at a time!"
Although lately it has more often felt like "Writing a page that makes sense! One page at a time!"
I fear the eventual stop on this road may in fact be -- "Changing my socks! Every day!"

You can change the world one not-dumb class at a time ;) I'm not sure if you can change the world one pair of clean socks at a time, but it's worth a try :D

Oh God. I feel your pain. My sniff-test threshold is getting lower and lower. :-(
