“I like maths. How you can plus numbers and then minus them again. Sometimes you also get a zero. You cannot do anything with a zero, can you? Now I do not want to be a zero. So in class, I try to add to the zero and make it one. But sometimes, you have to multiply too and then there come many zeros. And sometimes, when I fail to present my homework, my teacher asks me, “You want to be a hero or a zero in life?”. I do not want to be a zero, I only want to be a hero.”
