I can walk. It's just that I'm so rich I don't need to.

A divinely expressed performance in any genre sets me completely on fire.

Champions get up when they can't.

It does not matter how awesome your product is or your presentation or your post. Your awesome thing matters ONLY to the extent that it serves the user's ability to be a little more awesome.
