    "The society which scorns excellence in plumbing
     as a humble activity
     and tolerates shoddiness in philosophy because
     it is an exalted activity will have neither
     good plumbing nor good philosophy ...
     neither its pipes nor its theories will hold water."

         that I had no talent for writing, but
         I couldn't give up because
                by that time I was too famous."
