This is my first quarter with James Lough and I’m learning that he is a very interesting man. For those of you who are unaware, Dr. Lough is the chair of the writing department here at SCAD. He is teaching my Writing for the Arts I class this quarter.
His utterances are often startling and thought-provoking. For that reason, I’ve decided to compile a list of his quotes:
- “Austrians are just Germans in drag.”
- “There was a middle-aged, overweight woman in a polyester smock, fingers blackened from gambling, holding margarine tubs full of coins, licking her lips.” – On a woman he’d seen in a casino in Reno
- “Jim Morrison performs like a snake having sex.”
- “I was seduced by a parrot.”
- “Jean stayed on his side. He was as embarrassed as I was. It was kind of cute.”
Many more to come. If you have any of your own Lough quotes, post them here.
What Sarah Said 
You’re going to enjoy his classes. They are always the highlight of my quarter. (Except now I have the Reverend’s classes to look forward to.)
Oh god, let me find my notebooks from all three quarters from two years ago and two quarters from last year. I have a TON of quotes from him. They made my day, always.
