An aphorism has been in my memory for a long time, that goes like this:
It's better to be a warrior in a garden than a gardener in a war.

Tolkien scholars would ask the question: is Sam Gamgee the warrior or the gardener? (The right answer is: he is a gardener, the Lord of the Rings is all about rebuilding after destruction.)
