"You don't really learn how to be a polymath; you become a polymath by learning a lot of different things. When I was in college I would pick a different hobby every break. One summer was art, another stamp collecting, etc. Over that period of a couple months I would learn enough about the topic to be able to talk with people about it if it were their interest. It mostly comes down to being interested in a lot of things and learning about them in turn." - Kevin Bondelli
