You probably heard that version from an educator...

The most common axiom is actually:
"Those who can, do. Those who can't, teach."

- Wrong. My son is a college professor so obviously I don't subscribe to that. I knew what I was doing when I posed the question but thank you for dropping by and Happy Friday! :)

- I do not dispute the point of origin of the quotation my friend. I am well aware of it. One takes poetic license from time to time and this time I took mine. :)

Yes. That happens all the time. Another way of putting it is that people always throw stones at a tree bearing fruit. Aren't people unkind sometimes. Whilst one should be proud of those who can and admire them and learn from them, others try to destroy them. They need their heads examined, Rosie.:)

Yes. Lots of people who CAN "do" criticize too though.
Comments
- I guess so Babe but I think the ones who can't do are a lot more critical since they don't have a clue what it takes to accomplish anything. Thank you for your answer! :) ((hugs))
