After a course taught by Josh, a student said:

"I hack everything now. When I have an assignment, I think to myself 'how can I hack this?'. ... It [the concept of hacking] has changed my life. Now when I do anything I ask myself - how can I hack this?"

"too often, when i'm at a restaurant and asked if i would like some dessert, i feel like i'm being taken for a ride, tempted to increase my bill for no perceptible reason other than the fact that my senses are pre-disposed to consume and therefore need sugar. but there is only one piece of sweetness that i would pay for on the diminutive dessert menu, and that is joshua klein's brain."
