OPINION:
FORMER PRESIDENTS (2007)
Former Presidents, thinking about what they will say
about history, do not think about journalists thinking about
what history will say about them. Journalists, thinking about
history abstractly, do think about former Presidents; but
former Presidents, not thinking about journalists
who are not thinking about them, do not think
about anyone who is not thinking about them, either;
rather, they think about everyone who thinks about
former Presidents and not necessarily not about history.
Journalists, not thinking about persons who are thinking
about them, do not think about history not thinking
about them, nor about former Presidents not thinking
about history; but they do think about Presidents who think
about history instead of thinking about public opinion.
Journalists occasionally think about Presidents thinking
about former Presidents not thinking about what they will say
about history. Former Presidents never think about Presidents
who, not thinking about them, think about journalists thinking
about former Presidents not thinking about
what history will say about them.
