When you have two alternatives, the first thing you have to do is to look for the third that you didn't think about, that doesn't exist.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I have a number of alternatives, and each one gives me something different.
There's an alternative. There's always a third way, and it's not a combination of the other two ways. It's a different way.
You have to make choices always. It's about the omission of something for the sake of another.
Stop thinking in terms of limitations and start thinking in terms of possibilities.
Let not your mind run on what you lack as much as on what you have already.
As contemporary history reminds us we are human to the extent that we are able to chose between alternatives.
Economics is a choice between alternatives all the time. Those are the trade-offs.
To pursue a so-called Third Way is foolish. We had our experience with this in the 1960s when we looked for a socialism with a human face. It did not work, and we must be explicit that we are not aiming for a more efficient version of a system that has failed.
The absence of alternatives clears the mind marvelously.
When confronted with two alternatives, life and death, one is to choose death without hesitation.
