The source of this economic paralysis are somewhat different in the two countries. In Japan, a combination of highly constraining social patterns, consensus-based decision making and an ossified political process have suppressed new ideas and made the country resistant to change. In the U.S., there is no shortage of fresh thinking, debate and outrage-the paralysis is caused by ________ of consensus on how problems should be tackled. In a rich nation like the U.S., it’s easy to be fooled into thinking there’s always more time for problems to get solved. So it has been in Japan. The Japanese are wealthy enough that they don’t suffer too much from the prolonged period of stunted growth.

Since William Shakespeare lived more than 400 years ago, and many records from that time are lost or never existed in the first place, we don’t know everything about his life. For example, we know that he was baptized in Stratford-upon-Avon, 100 miles northwest of London, on April 26, 1564. But we don’t know his exact birthdate, which must have been a few days earlier. However, we do know that Shakespeare’s life revolved around two locations; Stratford and London. He grew up, had a family, and bought property in Stratford, but he worked in London, the center of English theater. As an actor, a playwright, and a partner in a leading acting company, he became both prosperous and well-known. ________, fans of Shakespeare have imagined and reimagined him according to their own tastes, just as we see with the 19th-century portrait of Shakespeare wooing his wife at the top of this page.

Even without knowing everything about his life

Because we know everything about him

Because it is impossible to understand him

To act well, a person needs to determine which action-guiding statements are true, or likely to be true, and which false, or likely to be false. For it seems reasonable to suppose that a person who is acting in accordance with true statements, and not false ones likely to be true, has more chance of reaching acceptable goals.

It can be unreliable to act in accordance with statements which are likely to be true.

Acceptable results will be guaranteed to a person acting on the ground of true statements.

It is equally dangerous to act on the statements that are true and on those that are likely to be true.

Action is one thing, and statements another; the two have no mutual dependency.
