On a similar note:
"In any dispute the intensity of feeling is inversely proportional to the
value of the stakes at issue." By way of corollary, it adds: "That is why
academic politics are so bitter." Sayre's law is named after Wallace Stanley
Sayre (1905-1972), U.S. political scientist and professor at Columbia
University.
And not so related, but still appropriate in many instances -- could
occasionally be said about people on this list, if I were feeling really mean and
cranky...
"Some people like a Slinky...Not really good for anything, but you still
can't help but smile when you shove them down the stairs."
