A lot of people don't know but it's been researched and confirmed that if you don't rock and stone you ain't coming home.

Pair that with leave no dwarf behind and it implies if you don't rock and stone you're not a dwarf

If mining weren't so dangerous, I kinda see myself doing it. Like if I didn't have to worry about trapped gases, or tunnel collapses, or explosives, or dust-caused disease, or generally high cancer rates, it could be a fun thing.

You basically get to dig holes for a living. How fucking sweet is that?
