A young, ambitious boy goes to his mother to declare his desire to capture a fort. He lays out a detailed, well-thought of plan in front of her...
"... and so this is the plan. We'll have prepared guerilla tactics..."
His mother, a woman well aware of the current affairs, gives him a stern look and says, "STOP! Don't you worry about capturing that fort, my boy. It has been specially reserved for us."
"But mummy I want to capture the fort based on our fighting skills and merit!"
"Merit! Stop talking like a rational, educated fool!"
