Welcome to the Underpower educational corner.It has come to our attention that some people are unfamiliar with great quotes and in particular are confused by the blurb which appears in the sidebar of underpower. To help allieviate this problem we present here the original quote:
As an adolescent I aspired to lasting fame, I craved factual certainty, and I thirsted for a meaningful vision of human life - so I became a scientist. This is like becoming an archbishop so you can meet girls. -- Matt Cartmill, anthropology professor and author (1943-) Prof. Cartmill works at Duke University and you may view some of his work here. Some of the more observent among you may have noticed that the sidebar changed slightly. This was because I was parodying from memory and my memory is notoriously playful. I decided it was better to fix it and admit my mistake than allow a shoddy parody to continue. Three cheers for the purity of parody! Hip Hip Hoorah. God save the Queen! Wait a minute... I'm an American. How did that happen. I'm afraid I'll have to end this here while I track down those responsible and have them all sacked. |
