"So many people think they are "self made". My grandpa used to say "the only thing that is truly your own doing is the dump you took". God bless that old fart."

"It's such a hard concept for me to get across to a libertarian friend that no man is an island and that we are helped by so many people in society both living and dead that we can never claim that we owe no one anything or that we are self made."
