Quote: when you pick up the right tool in your life… you know it

This came from an interview with Morgan Freeman, talking about ‘picking up’ acting. I think this applies to physical ‘tools’ as well. For me, when I picked up a badminton racquet, it just fit… it just felt right in my hand straightaway… know what I mean

Anyone care to share on this one?…

(For more on Morgan, check out his entry on IMDB.)
