Quote by P. J. O'Rourke

Feeling good about government is like looking on the bright side of any catastrophe. When you quit looking on the bright side, the catastrophe is still there.

Feeling good about government is like looking on the bright

Summary

This quote suggests that being positive or having a favorable perception of the government is akin to finding a silver lining in a disastrous situation. However, when one stops focusing on the positive aspect, the underlying problems or challenges persist. In other words, acknowledging the flaws or failures within the government is necessary to address and rectify these issues rather than simply remaining optimistic and disregarding the reality of the situation.
