Don’t hate nothing at all…

…except for hatred.

Bob Dylan sang that, in “It’s Alright Ma, I’m Only Bleeding.” It’s a good motto. Be more “pro-” than “anti-”, when you can.

In the same song, performed live over the years, across several presidencies, he gets a huge cheer when he sings:

“Even the President of the United States/ sometimes must stand… naked.”

You can make of that lyric what you will.
