Read this somewhere....
A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is meant for insects. "
And then remembered something i was thinking of a few days back....
Imagine two businessmen travelling in a train...they have taken this journey for the sole purpose of some business dealings...and here they are now debating and arguing and discussing the deal....and slowly but steadily they are arriving at the end of it...on the verge of cutting a suceessful business deal....Now the reason they can sucessfully discuss this deal in peace....and with full concentration...is 'cos somebody his doing his job properly...in this case...the driver of the train...so they dont have to worry about the intricacies of those things....
So isnt this division of labour good? isnt this specialization good?
Specialization is meant for those who can think...specialization is meant for human beings....
