    What is that quote.... "The true warrior shuns violence but is very good at it..." something like that.

    The scholarship of teaching and learning results in equal hatred from latte leftists and cappuccino conservatives.

    I have heard that, but due to some "verstehen" issues with the statement I've amended it:

    "The true warrior is so attracted to intense, life or death violence, he doesn't want to be bothered by the piddly kind that fascinates others."

    But then, aren't we all trying to describe the same elephant?
