Eric Matthews : [addressing Cory's class] You've all known each other since kindergarten, but next year there's gonna be maybe 9 or 10 other 6th grade classes from different schools making up your 7th grade class and you're not gonna know all those kids. A lot of them are going to think differently than you.
Stuart Minkus : What do you mean?
Eric Matthews : Well, do you smoke cigarettes?
Stuart Minkus : No.
Eric Matthews : Lot of kids in your new school will, lot of them will try and pressure you into it, telling you how cool it is to smoke. You want to be cool, don't you?
Stuart Minkus : More than you can ever know.
Eric Matthews : Maybe you'll smoke.
Stuart Minkus : I don't think so.
Eric Matthews : Why not?
Stuart Minkus : Because according to the New England journal of medicine, smoking reduces lung capacity, leads to emphysema and causes heart attack and lung cancer.
Eric Matthews : What if...
[points at Topanga]
Eric Matthews : she thought it was cool, then would you smoke then?
Stuart Minkus : In a heartbeat.
Eric Matthews : WELCOME to the world of peer pressure.
[to Topanga]
Eric Matthews : So, he smokes, you think that's cool?
Topanga Lawrence : I think anyone who smokes is a disgusting pig!
Stuart Minkus : I'm trying to quit!
Eric Matthews : It's not that easy, Minkus, there's all kinds of pressures. What about alcohol?
Stuart Minkus : Could you use someone else as an example, please?
Eric Matthews : [to Cory] What about alcohol?
Cory Matthews : What about it?
Eric Matthews : [to Shawn] What about drugs?
Cory Matthews : Hey, calm down, Eric, we're not into that stuff, what we like is baseball and comic books.
Eric Matthews : Yeah, that's what you like NOW, but that's going to change, just like you're changing schools, just like you're gonna start feeling a lot of new stuff inside of you you're not really gonna understand.
Cory Matthews : How do you know?
Eric Matthews : Because you're growing up.
[to Topanga]
Eric Matthews : Some of you have already started.
