It’s easy to talk about geniuses.
That’s what exempts the rest of us from having to do anything at all. They were the ones figured it out. It’s cause they’re geniuses.
We’re not. We don’t have to figure anything out. Just have to sit back and enjoy the fruits of their labor. Responsible to no one.
But there is one nice thing about getting into the school books. They clean it up for you. Remove the stray hairs growing in your ears. Keep it real simple. They make you into ideas – Planck’s constant and other nonesuch.
I never had such an opportunity as to be in books. Haven’t read many of them either. That’s ok by me. Didn’t get born to spend my time that way. Some people are called to it. Other people just die, having read hardly anything at all. That’s me. Dead. Read hardly nothing.
