Our quote today is again from Professor Thomas Sowell’s recent article at Real Clear Politics,6/8/2010, “Random Thoughts on the Passing Scene”:
“…Umpire Jim Joyce, who publicly admitted that his wrong call cost pitcher Armando Galarraga a perfect game, and Galarraga himself both exhibited grace in the way they reacted to the situation. How long has it been since anyone has done anything that called for the word “grace”?
“When you consider what an enormous windfall gain it is to be born in America, it is painful to hear some people complain bitterly that someone else got a bigger windfall than they did…”
