Keeping Things in Perspective
It’s something like what Coach John McKay of USC said to his team after they had been humiliated 51-0 by Notre Dame.
McKay came into the locker room and saw a group of beaten worn-out and thoroughly depressed young football players who were not accustomed to losing. He stood up on a bench and said, “Men, let’s keep this in perspective. There are 800 million Chinese who don’t even know this game was played.” That’s what you call perspective.
