If learning is very easy for Equality 7-2521, why do you think that the Council of Vocations chose street sweepers as their vocation?

Equality was not chosen to enter the House of Scholars because he was too curious and questioned his teachers. He was not pliable, and the fact that he openly questioned his betters eliminated him from further study.

We, Equality 7-2521, were not happy in those years in the Home of the Students. It was not that the learning was too hard for us. It was that the learning was too easy. This is a great sin, to be born with a head which is too quick. It is not good to be different from our brothers, but it is evil to be superior to them. The Teachers told us so, and they frowned when they looked upon us.
