Specialization is for insects

Almost done with my papers! Still have a whole day and a half...that is pretty good for the Queen of Procrastination!

"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, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects."
- Robert Heinlein Time Enough for Love

My new favorite quote!

I think we are at the point of too many specialists.

It is one of the reasons pop music is so bad these days. Among other things.
