I've been in love with the same woman for forty-one years. If my wife finds out, she'll kill me. ↗

I was teaching in one of the universities while the country was suffering from a severe famine. People were dying of hunger, and I felt very helpless. As an economist, I had no tool in my tool box to fix that kind of situation. ↗
