There's an apocrypahal tale about Henry Kissinger - former Secretary of State to the USA.
An aide cameto him one day for his reaction to his proposal.
Kissinger says 'I think it could be lot better'. 'Yes, sir' said the aide and off he went to 'do better'.
A few days later, the same scenario played out. Off went the aide again to do better.
This went on for several weeks.
Finally, the aide said 'I'm sorry sir, this is the very best I can do. There's no way I can improve on it.'
'Good' says Kissinger - 'now I'll read it'.
