Quote by Roger von Oech

The human body has two ends on it: one to create with and one to sit on. Sometimes people get their ends reversed. When this happens they need a kick in the seat of the pants.


The human body has two ends on it: one to create with and on

Summary

This quote by Theodore Roosevelt humorously points out that humans have two ends of their body – one to create and work actively, and the other to rest upon. However, individuals can sometimes become stagnant or lazy, reversing the intended purpose and neglecting productivity. Roosevelt suggests that in such instances, people require a figurative "kick in the seat of the pants" to serve as a wake-up call, encouraging them to rediscover their motivation and drive for accomplishment.
