Great minds
Several months ago, Juan R. Puerto wrote an excellent letter in which he quoted Eleanor Roosevelt. Her quote deserves restating: “Great minds discuss ideas, average minds discuss events, and small minds discuss people.”
Which of the two major presidential candidates discussed ideas, and which one discussed people?
As Mr. Puerto concluded, “We can help the country best by choosing the political candidates with the best ideas.”
Thank you, Mr. Puerto. I keep your letter on my home office desk.
