not a quote but a commentary. nature gives us blackberries, and a number of other sources of nourishment, surrounded by thorns, and other obstructions, that we must exercise the intelligence it has also given us, to attain them.
real people don't care about image, what they do care about, is the kind of world how they act creates, for themselves and each other to have to live in. real people understand, that gratification doesn't come from trying to impress each other, but from what they solve, make, or learn.
I think it's a rubbish saying tbh. "real people". It's just rediculous. Somebody holds themselves to different values in life and all of a sudden they "aren't real"? Rubbish and ignorance, not the qualities I would attribute to a "real person".
I sometimes wonder how people forgot how to talk! George Washington had to have been well educated. He was a military man as well, obviously; hence the name General Washington.
So let me get this straight, commander Worf (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine) was quoting William Shakespeare’s Twelfth Night when General Martok became Supreme Chancellor of the Klingon Empire....OK ....lol...
