"My hero," said Joanna, smiling slightly for the first time.
"I'm no hero," I said, very definitely. "I just find

I have no idea what my IQ is because I am afraid I won't make it past 100 of I take the test.

I don't feel retarded enough to be hopeless but I definitely feel outclassed compared to a lot of people when it comes to recognizing patterns and discerning advanced logic.

It isn't a criticism of imperialism, it's a criticism of the depravity of human nature.
