It was a PE teacher from whom I first heard that neo-proverb.

It has sure caused me a lot of grief, both in proving to myself that it
really was an expression of envy, and in having to deal with people who
seemed to believe it had some sort of meaning.

You know, since most of the grief that bad teachers cause is derived from
improperly attempting to systematize things, and that proverb itself is one
of those false rules that somehow accumulates in bad systems, I'm not sure
that it's that far offtopic here.
