I’ve always wondered how the heck horses could provide any useful contribution, and, for that matter, why it was so important to put him back together. When life gives us a broken egg, cook an omelette.
All of the comments led me to a passage from Lewis Carroll’s “Through the Looking Glass”, a conversation between Alice and Humpty Dumpty:
“When I use a word,” Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, “it means just what I choose it to mean—neither more nor less.”“The question is,” said Alice, “whether you can make words mean so many different things.”“The question is,” said Humpty Dumpty, “which is to be master—that’s all.”

I thought even they couldn’t put Humpty back together again.

Nowhere in that verse does it say Humpty is an egg.

Well, apparently they didn’t use “all” the king’s horses and men…

Sounds just like Trumpty Dumbty…
