RAVE: A Quote for the Ages - Zhou Enlai



On a secret visit to China in 1971, Henry Kissinger asked his Chinese counterpart, Zhou Enlai, what his opinion was on the outcome of the French Revolution. To which Enlai responded:

"It is too early to say"

Brilliant. 

How prescient are those words in this age of endless babble that too often amount to little more than empty sound bites.

Sometimes the simplest answer is the most complex and erudite.

Do you get my point?
