The Teaching of the Guard

The Teaching of the Guard
Professor: Now that they are going to force me to retire after I wasted my life trying to get through to class after class of dunderheads, I just want to blow my brains out!

Student #1: Don't do it, professor!

Professor: Who are you?

Student #1: I'm Jerome Fielding. Class of '43. I threw myself against a hail of machine gun bullets because of something you taught me.

Student #2: And I threw myself on a grenade to save my men because of one of your lessons.

Student #3: And I challenged an enemy tank with my fist when it was all I had left. And even though I got chewed to bits, my courage helped to inspire our side to victory.

Student #1: So you see, Professor. You can retire with pride. Any old teacher could teach us how to live, but you're the only one that could teach us how to die.
