Me, to my (graduate-level) ODE students in office hours this afternoon:
"The amount of pain is conserved.
[nontrivial pause, while I think about the accuracy of my statement]
(Well, technically, the amount of pain is non-decreasing.)"
Update: This quote was quite a doozy. It's the type of quote that, when my professors accidentally backed into them, I liked to write them down for posterity.
