Mr. McCleod: And if there’s anything I want you guys to take with you from this class, as you’re abusing your bodies over break, is three things: the heart is the body’s strongest muscle, that the brain has more cells in it than our galaxy has stars, and that the body is 72% water. So wherever you go over vacation, don’t get too dehydrated. Laura Kasischke
About This Quote

In this famous quote, Mr. McCleod tells his students to take with them from his class the knowledge that the heart is the body’s strongest muscle, the brain has more cells in it than our galaxy has stars, and that the body is 72% water. In other words, take something from every class you have in college. Whatever Mr. McCleod says in his classes, don’t let it go to waste.
