[Opinions] Re: Michelangelo
It's kind of like how people might sarcastically call someone Einstein when that person has done or said something sstupid. You might call some poor fool who can't even make the ends of a circle meet when they draw Michelangelo.Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you criticize him, you're a mile away and you have his shoes!

Well hardly anyone is called Michelangelo in Italy these days, it would be considered a slightly ridiculous name. Likewise Dante. Not Leonardo though, I guess it’s got more use?
