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
Does Robert Heinlein claim to have all these skills, or is he wishing? I can manage at least half, but the diaper thing I have a serious problem with. Others are way beyond my pay grade, but my dog loves me even if my mother didn't.
Much of the time my wife loves me. Not everybody can say that.
