Laurence J. Peter Quotes

A pessimist is a man who looks both ways when he crosses the street.

Remember when we were a child and we were told to always look both ways before crossing the street? We were told that we would be hurt if we did not take a few seconds to look to the left and right of us before moving forward. A pessimist man looks both ways when he crosses the street.

Speak when you are angry - and you'll make the best speech you'll ever regret.

Anger is one of the most powerful emotions next to sadness... anger drives people and it oftentimes makes them lose their sense of logic. When you are angry according to Dr. Laurence J. Peter you can make the best speech because the only emotion coming out of that speech is anger, therefore your speech will be clear, and focus only on the aim of it. This speech will have passion and zeal.
