Nothing is impossible for the man who doesn't have to do it himself.

Nothing is impossible for the man who doesn't have to do it

Summary

This quote suggests that when someone is not responsible for completing a task or achieving a certain goal themselves, they may believe that anything is possible. It implies that people often underestimate the difficulties and challenges involved in accomplishing something until they are directly responsible for it. When someone is not personally accountable for the outcome, they may hold a more idealistic and optimistic view, thinking that anything can be achieved without fully realizing the effort and commitment required.

It makes sense that we came up with our public school system

It makes sense that we came up with our public school system during the Industrial Revolution because it's like everybody is a factory worker, eating their terrible food and going back to the room where you're silent and listening to an idiot. That's an epitomizing idea, getting called 'Nothing' for your whole high school experience.

The President is merely the most important among a large num

The President is merely the most important among a large number of public servants. He should be supported or opposed exactly to the degree which is warranted by his good conduct or bad conduct, his efficiency or inefficiency in rendering loyal, able, and disinterested service to the Nation as a whole. Therefore it is absolutely necessary that there should be full liberty to tell the truth about his acts, and this means that it is exactly necessary to blame him when he does wrong as to praise him when he does right. Any other attitude in an American citizen is both base and servile. To announce that there must be no criticism of the president, or that we are to stand by the president right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public. Nothing but the truth should be spoken about him or any one else. But it is even more important to tell the truth, pleasant or unpleasant, about him than about any one else.

Well, well, perhaps I am a bit of a talker. A popular fellow such as I am -- my friends get round me -- we chaff, we sparkle, we tell witty stories -- and somehow my tongue gets wagging. I have the gift of conversation. I've been told I ought to have a salon, whatever that may be.
