BUT ON THE OTHER HAND . . .


"Thou hast seen nothing yet."

Miguel de Cervantes
16th century Spanish novelist/dramatist/poet

You could assume at least two very different interpretations of this:
  1. A statement of self-affirmation by a confirmed optimist.
  2. An opinion expressed by the speaker about the limited life experiences of the listener.
How quickly you decided which says a lot about your propensity to consider alternatives.

  2. Yes, well Paul, we both know there are those who might describe you using different adjectives, but we'll leave that discussion for a less public place.
