Walt Whitmanisms
The original:

Do I contradict myself? Very well then I contradict myself. I am large, I contain multitudes.

Sark Julian:

Do I make tradeoffs? Very well then I make tradeoffs. I am poor, I need to make compromises.

HonoreDB:

Do I repeat myself? Very well then, I repeat myself. You are large, you contain multitudes.

Me:

Am I signaling? Very well then, I am signaling. I am human; I am part of a tribe.

Steven Kaas:

Do I contradict myself? Very well, then I contradict myself. I am large, I can beat up anyone who calls me on it. #whitmanthebarbarian

Steven Kaas:

Do I have no opinion? Very well, then I have no opinion. I am small, I do not contain a team of pundits.
