Michael Lewis, author of Moneyball and a new book conspicuously timed to coincide with Father’s Day, was on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart last night. During the interview, he shared the advice his father once gave him, calling it the Lewis family motto:

“Do as little as possible, and that unnwillingly, for it is better to receive a slight reprimand than to perform an arduous task.”

I think I may have just found my new family motto.
