"It's a poor workman who blames . . ."
"It's a poor workman who blames his own tools."
How many times have we heard THAT old chestnut? The broad implication is that talent and ability should be able to overcome sub-standard tools. Last night I realized for the first time that the expression was coined a LONG time before power tools even existed. I now believe that a good workman is fully entitled to blame his tools whenever he gets a ****ty result. Makes me feel better, anyway. FoggyTown "Cut to shape . . . pound to fit." |
