We are led by lawyers who do not understand either technolog

Summary

This quote suggests that the leaders in certain contexts, seemingly lawyers, lack the necessary understanding of technology and financial matters. It implies that these leaders may not be equipped to make informed decisions about technology-related issues or financial matters due to a lack of expertise or awareness in these domains. Consequently, it highlights the potential inadequacies or limitations that may arise when those in leadership positions lack essential knowledge or comprehension in areas crucial to decision-making.

I was a sickly baby, and after two sets of adoptive parents took me home, they returned me to the orphanage because of a serious respiratory infection.

I feel very strongly about putting questions; it partakes too much of the style of the day of judgement. You start a question, and it's like starting a stone. You sit quietly on the top of a hill; and away the stone goes, starting others; and presently some bland old bird (the last you would have thought of) is knocked on the head in his own back garden, and the family have to change their name. No, sir, I make it a rule of mine: the more it looks like Queer Street, the less I ask.
