There’s always a way
Civilization moves forward because of individuals who don’t give up in the face of obstacles. When the road looks tough, they knuckle down and power through. When there is a seemingly insurmountable problem, they engage their brains and find a solution. This is how we advance as a species, by believing that there is always a way.
Sometimes, however, in hindsight, you realize that giving up was the most sensible option. Take this case of a determined landlord, for example. Sure, he has succeeded in his task of fitting a toilet into that space, but how many tenants is he going to be able to rent his place to when they realize that there’s going to be quite a breeze when they sit down to pee?
