each time somebody claims something is impossible, consider how much he is benefiting from the status quo
- trashtester 4y agoWhen somebody claims something is impossible, maybe the status quo will be maintained, or maybe some alternative plan will be started. On the other hand, if someone argues for doing something that they know is impossible, it may be an even stronger indication that they may benefit from the status quo. In such a situation, those who advocate for an alternative, proven but less sexy option may be those who really seek progress.
