RE: The Importance of Knowing a Little Bit About Everything

in #knowledge7 years ago

@kyriacos great follow up to your last post.

It reminds me of a Quote from Robert Heinlein (a bit of a douche from what I understand, but he wrote some great Sci-Fi):

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.

I can't claim to have done all of those, it remains to be seen whether or not I die gallantly.

It makes me wonder what kind of insects the human race is becoming?

Now I need to go see what's trending on Facechat. ;-)
