  1. That's a very highbrow quote from Rockefeller but profoundly true.
    It is a "clean" way of stating what you italicized in the variation.

    1. I agree with everything you said
      and thank you for doing so.

      Intellectuals often sound like aliens from a planet
      made of syllables. I know homeless people
      who make better sense then they do
