"He was a man, take him for all in all.
I shall not look upon his like again."
-- William Shakespeare, "Hamlet."
The death of George H.W. Bush at the age of 94 brought many reflections on the life and career of the 41st president of the United States, all of them praising his patriotism, integrity and political accomplishments even as they acknowledged his mistakes.
No surprise, since the man himself was the first to admit he made errors during his lifetime. But he was also the first to pass credit to others who assisted him in his accomplishments.
Would that we all could play in this same Bush League.
