Delightfully So

I am an optimist. It does not seem too much use being anything else. -- Winston Churchill

Frying Small Fishes...

老子 "道德經"

60 治大國若烹小鮮。

'Governing a country is like frying a small fish', so said Chinese philosopher Lao Tzu in 'Tao Te Ching' (verse 60). Implication, is of course, that you spoil it with too much poking.

Executives, executors, executioners, take note.
