More From Henry Hazlitt

When a man spends his own money to buy something for himself, he is very careful about how much he spends and how he spends it. when a man spends his own money to buy something for someone else, he is still very careful about how much he spends, but somewhat less what he spends it on. when a man spends someone else's money to buy something for himself, he is very careful about what he buys, but doesn't care at all how much he spends. and when a man spends someone else's money on someone else, he does't care how much he spends or what he spends it on. and that's government for you.

If you spend your own money on yourself, you care how much you spend and how well you spend it. if you spend your own money on someone else, you care how much you spend, but you don't care how well it is spent. if you spend someone else's money on yourself, you don't care how much you spend, but you do care how well it is spent. and finally, if you spend someone else's money on someone else, you don't care how much you spend, and you don't care how well it is spent. that is government.

In this present crisis, government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem. from time to time we've been tempted to believe that society has become too complex to be managed by self-rule, that government by an elite group is superior to government for, by, and of the people. well, if no one among us is capable of governing himself, then who among us has the capacity to govern someone else? all of us together, in and out of government, must bear the burden.

Give god the first part of every day. give god the first day of every week. give god the first portion of your income. give god the first consideration in every decision. give god the first place in your life.
Giving Decision Income
God has blessed me in many ways. money is not the greatest blessing you can have, but i literally had absolutely nothing. the first message that i preached at life in the word, i had to borrow a suit from my pastor's wife, because i didn't have any decent clothes, and i was driving a 20-year-old car. we went through a lot of years of having nothing, sleeping in mcdonald's parking lots, because we didn't have money to stay all night in a hotel. but, like anybody else who works hard and is diligent and doesn't quit and doesn't give up, there is a day the blessings come.

Trump, no matter what anybody thinks of him, is interesting. and trump, no matter what anybody thinks of him, is funny. trump, no matter what anybody thinks of him, is different. trump, no matter what anybody thinks of him, is drama. trump, no matter what anybody thinks of him, is unpredictable. all of that means, you can't miss it.

People don't live their lives in a series of scenes that form a dramatic narrative, they don't speak in dialogue, they're not lit by a cinematographer or scored by a composer. the properties of real life and the properties of drama have almost nothing to do with each other. the difference between writing about reporters and being a reporter is the same as the difference between drawing a building and building a building.
Life Real Drama
Sitting in an automobile was where i first remember understanding how drama works ... hidden in the back seat of a sedan, i quickly realized how deep the chasm or intense the claustrophobia could be inside your average family car.

In terms of drama school, what that will give you that you won't necessarily learn on a film set is the technical ability - ie, projecting your voice and stage craft.
Drama School Voice
A certain amount of volatility and drama can me healthy and keep things fun and interesting if you're willing at any moment during a fight to say, 'this means nothing. i love you, let's forget about it.
