I read this today and it had me laughing aloud. Maybe you know it already, maybe not. I just thought it would make a fine Swaylock’s motto, should one of you arrange it in better English than mine:
“Always keep in mind that Noah’s ark was built by an amateur, whereas the Titanic was built by professionnals…”
Wow… When I posted that thread, I just intended to have you laughing a bit, just like I did, but you seem to have taken that pretty seriously!!! Now, poor Mike PALER will have to decide between all your (fine) suggestions… Sorry, Mike, I didn’t mean that…
I’m graduated in English Letters and Literature at the Uniersity of Santa Catarina/Florianopolis/Brazil. This subject attracts me a lot. All the mottos have something in common. They try to link everyone of us into this particular community. In reality, Swaylocks proves that from diversity can grow up a community. I think it is something most of human beings have forgotten lately…
