Brains or Heart (or Both?)
From The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, by L. Frank Baum, via John Eldredge (p 38):
Dorothy and the Scarecrow had been greatly interested in the story of the Tin Woodman, and now they knew why he was so anxious to get a new heart. "All the same," said the Scarecrow, "I shall ask for brains instead of a heart; for a fool would not know what to do with a heart if he had one." "I shall take the heart," returned the Tin Woodman; "for brains do not make one happy, and happiness is the best thing in the world."
Though happiness isn't necessarily my goal, may each enjoy its place.
