“It reminds me a little bit of the story of the man who took his young son-in-law out and was going to introduce him to golf, and told him all that he had to do, and teed up the ball. And the kid took a swing, and he missed the golf ball entirely, but hit an ant’s nest into the air. And so, lined up and took a crack at it and again — hit another gouge out of the ant’s nest. And now there were ants flying all the way through the air. And as he lined up for the third try, two ants peeked out of the crater that he left, and one of them said, ‘If we want to survive this, we’d better get on the ball.”
