• Good news is almost never reported. So news is almost always bad. When you see bad news, ask whether equally positive news would have reached you.

• When a trend is gradually improving, with periodic dips, you are more likely to notice the dips than the overall improvement.

• More bad news is sometimes due to better surveillance of suffering, not a worsening world.

• People often glorify their early experiences, and nations often glorify their histories.

If everything goes wrong, why should we even bother?
