George W. Bush auf Bill Clintons Aussage, wonach ständig unterschätzt zu werden das beste sei, was einem widerfahren könne, wenn man politisch tätig ist. Podiumsdiskussion Juli 2017.
("The best thing that can happen to you when you're into politics is to be consistently underestimated." - "I was pretty good at that." -
Bush greift lediglich einen schon mehr als 100 Jahre umlaufenden Gedanken auf, der die Selbsteinschätzung auf der Grundlage der eigenen motives/intentions/ideals der Beurteilung anderer nach deren actions/doings/conduct/behavior gegenüberstellt, vgl. http://quoteinvestigator.com/2015/03/19/judge-others/. Johan Galtung äußerte am 4. Juni 2009 in einem Vortrag vor der Europäischen Kommission: "We tend to judge ourselves by our best intentions [...] and adversaries by their worst behavior [...]."
Original: (en) Too often we judge other groups by their worst examples, while judging ourselves by our best intentions
