My yeah but story is a little different...

In college, as a geology major, we were forced to take multiple chemistry, calculus, and physics classes in the first 2-3 semesters. After you completed most of those classes, you had to take a class called something like "quantitative geology" that was designed to show you how chemistry, physics, and calculus were used in geology. The class was pure torture, because if any of us were any good at chemistry, physics, or calculus, we would have been chemists, engineers, or something else other than geologists.

So one day in class, everybody was whining about how hard some test or homework assignment had been, and the professor finally had had enough. He said "If you all want to feel insignificant, realize that by the time he was 18, Isaac Newton had discovered most of what we know about modern physics, and by the time he was 20 he had discovered most of what we know about modern calculus."

One of the guys in the front of the class said "yeah but isn't it also true that Newton died still a virgin?"

The professor said (after the laughter died down) "Well I guess it depends on what your priorities are." With that, most of the class started packing their backpacks and acting like we were going to leave. There was no question where our priorities were...
