     Apparently, history shows this to be false:

     @RobinHood an alternative quote (which I'm probably misquoting) and which goes generations further is

     "Hard times make good men.
     Good men make easy times.
     Easy times make soft men.
     Soft men make hard times"

     Santa Claes 🇸🇪🇭🇰🎅 repeated this.

     “I must study politics and war, that our sons may have liberty to study mathematics and philosophy.

     Our sons ought to study mathematics and philosophy, geography, natural history and naval architecture, navigation, commerce and agriculture

     in order to give their children a right to study painting, poetry, music, architecture, statuary, tapestry and porcelain.”

     -John Adams

     The wildest animal you’ve ever seen is a stray cat, that your elderly neighbor won’t stop feeding, named “Poops”

     I don’t want my kids to grow up soft

     Well, I FUCKING DO

     I hope my kids don’t have to work at 15, I hope my kids don’t have to be embarrassed by their patched up hand-me-down clothes, I hope my kids are soft and gentle and learn Shakespeare and Latin and write poetry and compose music, and never have to worry about money or healthcare or peace because that…that MEANS WE FUCKING WON
