My profQUOTES, as quoted in mathNEWS (good and bad).

Volume 132, No. 1, September 23, 2016

• "When you see me at the poker table, don't go, 'Hey, that's Dave, my professor! He has a PhD in Artificial Intelligence!' because that's not my persona at the poker table. Say 'Hey, it's that loser Dave; he plays hockey with my brother!"
• "If you're one of those people who loves having people come over to your apartment and say, 'Oh, wow, look at all these textbooks. He's so smart,' then this is the textbook for you."
