And all the China religions!!! LOL!!!
6. First things first; be a realist
Lee Kuan Yew has always been a well-known realist.
He has openly called Asian superstitions, horoscopes, and fengshui "utter rubbish", said that love at first sight is a "grave mistake", and is even a vocal advocate on the topic of hereditary intelligence.
"There are many sons of doctors who have married doctors. Those who married spouses who are not as bright are tearing their hair out because their children can't make it. I have lived long enough to see all this play out." - Hard Truths to Keep Singapore Going
He has even told the Cabinet to demolish his home at Oxley Road.
"Because of my house, neighbouring houses cannot be built high. I said - demolish my house, change the planning rules, and the land value will go up. I don't think my daughter or my wife or I, who lived in it, or my sons who grew up in it, will bemoan its loss." - Hard Truths to Keep Singapore Going
Sentimentality is all and good, but it takes a realistic point of view to solve real world problems
