L'optimisme, ce n'est pas le refus de voir ce qui ne va pas, c'est le désir de ne pas s'y attarder. // Donne moi le courage de changer les choses que je peux changer, la sérénité d'accepter celles que je ne peux pas changer, et la sagesse de distinguer entre les deux. (Marc Aurèle) // Don't raise your voice; improve your argument. (Desmond Tutu) // Be the change you want to see in the world. (Gandhi)

8.11.11

When they forced Khruschev out,
he sat down and wrote two letters to his successor.
He said -
"When you get yourself into a situation you can't get out of, open the first letter, and you'll be safe.
When you get yourself into another situation you can't get out of, open the second letter".
Well, soon enough, this guy found himself into a tight place, so he opened the first letter. Which said - "Blame everything on me".
So he blames the old man, it worked like a charm.

He got himself into a second situation he couldn't get out of, he opened the second letter. It said - "Sit down, and write two letters".
