[peter] Drucker Says That Modern Government Can

Never Has So Much Military And Economic And Diplomatic Power Been Used So Ineffectively, And If After All Of This Time, And All Of This Sacrifice, And All Of This Support, There Is Still No End In Sight, Then I Say The Time Has Come For The American People To Turn To New Leadership Not Tied To The Mistakes And Policies Of The Past.

Most Days I Feel Like The Sole Survivor Of A Shipwreck, Rowing My Paddleboat Across A Sea Of People On Waves Made Of An Infinite Array Of Hands And Crests That Reveal Anonymous Faces. On A Good Day, The Clouds Part To Alight On-lo And Behold-an Island! I Step Ashore, Only Find That It Too Is Made Of People, Mangled Bodies Somehow Still Alive. They Grab At My Feet, Pulling Me Under Like Quicksand. The Last Thing I See Before Suffocating Is The Sky, A Billion Eyes Staring Down, Blinking In Undulating Electric Ripples. The Cold Rain I Feel On My Cheeks Is The Tears Of The People.

If Some Of My Judgments Were Wrong - And Some Were Wrong - They Were Made In What I Believed At The Time To Be The Best Interest Of The Nation.

I Don't Know A Lot About Politics, But I Know A Lot About Baseball.

I Don't Know Anything That Builds The Will To Win Better Than Competitive Sports.
