"A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, and die gallantly. Specialization is for insects."
- Robert A. Heinlein
"It is the prerogative of children and half-wits to proclaim the emperor wears no clothes, but in the end, the half-wit is still a half-wit, and the emperor is still the emperor."
