    Lightbulb Your One Non-Divisive Quote For The Day

    I've always appreciated a good quote that can sum up some great truth. A sentence or a paragraph, maybe a short poem. Yeah, I'm a nerd in some ways. Let's hear some brain food.

    Not interested in this thread being co-opted for use in spreading your specific breed of politics. For example:

    Quotes about hard work, integrity, success, love, death, the general human experience = Perfect for this thread.
    Quotes about America being great = Perfect for this thread.
    Quotes about Trump being great = Nope.
    Quotes about Biden being great = Nope.
    Quotes bashing Democrats or Republicans = Nope.
    Quotes bashing ALL politicians = Allowed.

    Show us the thinkers behind your thinking. I'll go find a list I wrote back in my school days and pick one. If I remember, tomorrow I'll add another.

    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.

    “The legs feed the wolf”. Herb Brooks.

    Great reminder for training, always focus on legs. You can never have to much leg strength or endurance.

    If you think you can do a thing or think you can't do a thing, you're right.
