A long time ago, there was no such thing as school, and children spent their days learning a trade, a phrase which here means “standing around doing tedious tasks under the instruction of a bossy adult” In time however, people realised that the children could be allowed to sit, and the first school was invented.- Lemony Snicket

Edward Mordrake was a 19th century Englishman who was born with an extra face on the back of his head and neck. This face could not talk or eat, but it would reportedly cry and laugh.
Mordrake begged doctors to remove the face, which he called a “demon head,” because he said that it whispered things to him at night in a Satanic language. Doctors refused because of the risk to Mordrake’s life.
Mordrake committed suicide at the somewhat disputed age of 23.

‘Twas brilliant, and the Time Lord Victorious,
Did gyre and gimble through time and space:
All mimsy was his TARDIS-ship,
And the aliens outgrabe.

The arms that reach, the claws that catch!
Beware the Daleks, and shun
The frumious Cybermen!”
