Barbara Pierson: Teacher

Quotes 

• Teacher : [jabbing at a map of the world, with the British Empire lands in pink]  Pink. Pink. Pink. Pink. What are all the pink bits? Rowan.

  Bill Rowen : They're ours, Miss.

  Teacher : Yes. The British Empire. Arthur... what fraction of the earth's surface is British?

  Arthur in Roger's Gang : Don't know, Miss.

  Teacher : Anyone? Jennifer Baker?

  Jennifer Baker : Two-fifths, Miss.

  Teacher : Yes, two-fifths! Ours. That's what this war is all about. Men are fighting and dying to save all the pink bits for you ungrateful little twerps.
