Best Answer

I don't know the author's name, but I remember my younger brother memorizing it in elementary school as:

Excuses, excuses, excuses! Excuses are tools of incompetence that build monuments of nothingness. Those who specialize in them, accomplish nothing at all, but excuses, excuses, excuses.

Not as the first responder suggests here:

"Excuses are monuments of nothingness,

They build bridges to nowhere,

Those of us who us these tools of incompetence,

Seldom become anything but nothing at all."
