It's not artistic enough for you. No, not at all. David, oh, actually, I did want to ask you one more question, which is I had a tweet the other day. I said if... if I was put in charge, I'd have every young man in the United States read these four books. And I had the right brothers by David McCullough. I had the education of a bodybuilder by Arnold Schwarzenegger.

I had, um, endurance by Lansing, Alfred Lansing and, the right stuff by Tom Wolf. Uh, what, You've got kids, so you probably think about this. If you had to put together a book list of three to five books for every young man in America to read, what would be on your list? That's a great question.

By the way, you talk about that quote, someone, uh, who was it? Anyways, one of my friends brought up his favorite quote of Napoleon, which was really good. It was kind of similar idea, but it's just something simple. And it's just a, in a letter and he's writing to one of his generals and, um, he just says, um, energy, energy, always more activity. Everything relies on you.
