More From Charles Krauthammer

One is not unpopular because he uses peculiar expressions; that just so happens; such terms become a fad, and by and by everybody, down to the last simpleton, uses them. but a person who follows through an idea in his mind is, and always will be, essentially unpopular. that is why socrates was unpopular, though he did not use any special terms, for to grasp and hold his 'ignorance' requires greater vital effort than understanding the whole of hegel's philosophy.

Dreams require down payments. dreams are free, but the journey isn't. there is a price to pay. first, you must pay the price of dealing with criticism from people who matter. ralph waldo emerson said, 'whatever course you decide upon, there is always someone to tell you that you are wrong.' second, you must pay the price of overcoming your fears. failure, rejection, and looking foolish are common fears - but they are just feelings that can be conquered and removed from your thoughts. finally, you must be willing to pay the price of hard work in order to realize your dream.

Authenticity is about imperfection. and authenticity is a very human quality. to be authentic is to be at peace with your imperfections. the great leaders are not the strongest, they are the ones who are honest about their weaknesses. the great leaders are not the smartest; they are the ones who admit how much they don't know. the great leaders can't do everything; they are the ones who look to others to help them. great leaders don't see themselves as great; they see themselves as human.

Economists tell us that the 'price' of an object and its 'value' have very little or nothing to do with one another. 'value' is entirely subjective economic value, anyway while 'price' reflects whatever a buyer is willing to give up to get the object in question, and whatever the seller is willing to accept to give it up. both are governed by the law of marginal utility, which is actually a law of psychology, rather than economics. for government to attempt to dictate a 'fair price' betrays complete misunderstanding of the entire process.
