Warren G. Bennis Quote
Our favorite example of meaning comes from a Peanuts cartoon strip. Lucy asks Schroeder—Schroeder playing the piano, of course, and ignoring Lucy—if he knows what love is. Schroeder stands at attention and intones, Love: a noun, referring to a deep, intense, ineffable feeling toward another person or persons. He then sits down and returns to his piano. The last caption shows Lucy looking off in the distance, balefully saying, On paper, he’s great. Most mission statements suffer that same fate: On paper, they’re great.

Most police cars are the equivalent of an electrical room on wheels and it does not surprise me that police officers that spend time in such a biologically toxic environment are displaying aggression.
