Neuroscience professor: "Don't worry about the details. Just know that the lenticular fasciculus leaves the globus pallidus carrying pallidothalamic fibers to the ventral anterior thalamus and joins the dentorubrothalamic fibers to form the thalamic fasciculus. You'll need to identify all of these in lab."
What.
Edit: Another line I really like, regarding the dopaminergic pathways of the striatopallidal system:
Neuroscience professor: "If you excite this neuron, which is inhibitory, you're going to inhibit this neuron. Because that is an inhibitory neuron, you remove the inhibition, causing disinhibition. Is everyone clear?"
