Summary

This quote emphasizes the speaker's ability to adapt and be cooperative as long as they are not met with resistance or obstacles. They claim to be compliant and easy to influence if things go their way, but caution against provoking them to the point of being frenzied or losing control. It suggests that while the speaker may be docile and accommodating under favorable conditions, there is a limit to their patience and brewing frustration could lead to a less agreeable behavior.

Generalists, people with moderately strong attachments to many ideas, should be hard to interrupt, and once interrupted, should have weaker, shorter negative reactions since they have alternative paths to realize their plans.

Generalists should be the upbeat, positive people in the profession while specialists should be their grouchy, negative counterparts.

New Domestic Animals. I want to have my lion and my eagle about me, that I may always have hints and premonitions concerning the amount of my strength or weakness. Must I look down on them today, and be afraid of them? And will the hour come once more when they will look up to me, and tremble?
