The Way of the World




"You never pick a fight you can't win.

Otherwise, you're gonna get your ass kicked."



I never learned this in school.

I believed that principles were worth standing up for.

I thought that that was what America at its best was.

The reality is different.


If I had children, I would tell them this.



"Picking a fight" now means when the majority has a strong position on an issue and you as an individual express a dissenting opinion.

Ibsen, An Enemy of the People
