if you are not prepared to draw it, dont photograph it

To me the original saying is moot. I can't draw so relating something to that doesn't really work for me.

But I get the idea. Which is much like my " what would ??? do" thread.

I get that not everything HAS to be "important" enough to to "do it right" but that in most cases we should discipline ourselves to do our best, no matter what level we're at.

For one thing it elevates us and our work and for another it elevates people's peception of us and our work.

It's easy to create wisdom quotes. They seem less smartass when it comes from a famous person, too.

(this fits nicely with your other thread about Minnesota dentists, I think)

Or in the words of the song:

Wimoweh, wimoweh, wimoweh, wimoweh
Wimoweh, wimoweh, wimoweh, wimoweh
Wimoweh, wimoweh, wimoweh, wimoweh
Wimoweh, wimoweh, wimoweh, wimoweh

Hush my darling, don't fear my darling
The lion is dead tonight
Hush my darling, don't fear my darling
The lion is dead tonight

Wimoweh, wimoweh, wimoweh, wimoweh
Wimoweh, wimoweh, wimoweh, wimoweh
Wimoweh, wimoweh, wimoweh, wimoweh
Wimoweh, wimoweh, wimoweh, wimoweh
Ee-e-e-oh-mum-a-weh
Ee-e-e-oh-mum-a-weh
