“So they published a study in 1968 called Pygmalion in the Classroom, and again they named it after Pygmalion because in that story from Ovid, the sculptor Pygmalion sculpts a beautiful woman, falls in love with her, and loves the statue so much that the goddess Venus says, "I'm going to make you a real-life person."”
