A resume that wouldn't even score you a job waving a sign outside a Cash For Gold store:
"You guys can't define me or define my work as a father. I am many things, you know. I am many things, yeah, I am a convicted rapist, I'm a hellraiser, I'm a father---a loving father, I'm a semi-good husband, you know what I mean."
Leonardo da Vinci. Lorenzo de' Medici. Mike Tyson. Renaissance men, the lot of them. When Castiglione wrote about polymaths, he never could have imagined a listmaker like Mike Tyson. Who needs a flowering of the arts, philosophy and sciences when you've got a man who is a boxer, ear biter, convicted rapist and semi-good husband?
I could not, as a child, have guessed I would see the day where polymaths would be part of a description about Mike Tyson. This officially makes my life. Reading this, I think I can cross seeing Machu Picchu off my list of things to before I die and replace it with the posted comment.

this that and the other says:
I think when even your sandwich board job opp. isn't panning out it's time to STFU.

Mike probably thinks polymaths is the class he flunked senior year...did he have senior year? What I find most disturbing about this quote is that he says, "I'm a convicted rapist..." kind of like he's saying, "I'm a confirmed QVC addict!"...Like yeah, oh well about that...If he didn't think it was relatively normal to be a convicted racist, I don't think he would have mentioned it at all.
