Rick RiordanYou know how teachers tell you the magic word is 'please'? That's not true. The magic word is 'puke'. It will get you out of class faster than anything else.
About This Quote
The meaning of this quote is that it is sometimes better to just do something than to go through the motions. If you are in class and the teacher asks if anyone would like to talk about their favorite subject, chances are that you will say no, but if you say ‘puke’ it will get you out of class faster than anything else.
