Summary

This quote humorously suggests that it is advantageous to borrow from someone who has a pessimistic outlook on life. Pessimists tend to have low expectations and anticipate disappointment, so they are less likely to have any strong hopes or demands when it comes to lending money or resources. By borrowing from a pessimist, one can potentially avoid the pressure or obligation to repay the borrowed amount in full. It highlights the perception that pessimists are more realistic and less idealistic, making them easier to deal with in certain situations.

If when a businessman speaks of minority employment, or air

If when a businessman speaks of minority employment, or air pollution, or poverty, he speaks in the language of a certified public accountant analyzing a corporate balance sheet, who is to know that he understands the human problems behind the statistical ones?

It is as simple as that -- but that isn't simple.
