Less dubious than I feared. If you prefer:

"One will weave the canvas; another will fell a tree by the light of his ax. Yet another will forge nails, and there will be others who observe the stars to learn how to navigate. And yet all will be as one. Building a boat isn’t about weaving canvas, forging nails, or reading the sky. It’s about giving a shared taste for the sea, by the light of which you will see nothing contradictory but rather a community of love."

Thanks for the pointer, I love quote provenance research (well, reading it.)

Well we can't blame all clever sayings on Ben Franklin now, can we.
