It was an interesting presentation, to be sure; Jacob couldn't remember seeing anything quite like it. The lad was a bit of a troublemaker as it was, but he felt comfortable humoring the boy so long as he wasn't disruptive, and he did the work. Right now, he was going on and on his argument about how the ever-present conflict in an ecosystem could be applied to humans, and how the push to evolve was only present if there was something to evolve against, and how by that logic world peace was actually a bad thing...
It may have been been argued partly as a joke, but something deep within Jacob responded. The man frowned, reaching up to rub his head, then inhaled a sharp breath as a familiar burst struck him.
It was more than just the words, though. It was an intrinsic feeling attached to them, an importance and drive that was so powerful, so intense, it felt like there was a drumming in his brain. He hadn't even realized he was grimacing until a soft, "Professor?" caught his attention, most of the class looking at him with various shades of concern.

"Only through conflict do we evolve."
