Nearly two decades has passed, I still remember my favourite professor, James Sehwartz. Whenever he smiles, it’s as if you’d just been told the funniest joke on earth. Almost all his students are his friends, and almost all his students know his life story.

He stood next to his father, frozen with fear, hoping the boss wouldn’t 44 at him, too.

Thus, for James, it was a 48 . He hated the place. He made a 49 that he kept to the end of his life: he would never do any work that brought 50 to someone else, and he would never allow himself to 51 money off the seat of others.
“What will you do?” his mother, Eva, would ask him.
“I don’t know,” he 52 say. He ruled out law, because he didn’t like 53 , and he ruled out medicine, because he couldn’t take the 54 of blood.
“What will you do?”
55 , my best professor I ever had became—he thought it was the job not to hurt anybody.
