पुराने ज़माने का इंसान वह है जो उस वक्त को याद रख सकता है जब किसी शरारती बच्चे को मनोचिकित्सक के पास ले जाने के बजाय घर के पीछे लकड़ी के कोठार में ले जाकर सजा दी जाती थी।

An old-timer is someone who can remember when a naughty child was taken to the woodshed instead of to a psychiatrist.

एक बात जो मुझे काफी हद तक सही लगती है, वह यह है कि जो राष्ट्रपति युद्ध के समय में भी नागरिकों की स्वतंत्रता पर अंकुश लगाते हैं, उनकी आमतौर पर कड़ी आलोचना की जाती है। इसलिए ज़्यादातर लोग इस बात से सहमत हैं कि फ्रेंकलिन डी. रूज़वेल्ट, जिन्हें व्यापक रूप से एक महान राष्ट्रपति माना जाता है, उनकी प्रतिष्ठा पर सबसे बड़ा धब्बा द्वितीय विश्व युद्ध के दौरान जापानी अमेरिकियों को नज़रबंद करना था। इसी तरह, 'हाबियस कॉर्पस' (बंदी प्रत्यक्षीकरण) को निलंबित करने के लिए लिंकन की भी कड़ी आलोचना की जाती है।

One thing that does seem to me to be fairly consistent is that presidents who restrict civil liberties, even in wartime, are usually judged harshly for it. So most people agree that one of the worst stains on the reputation of FDR, who is widely considered a great president, is the internment of Japanese Americans during World War II. Likewise, Lincoln is judged harshly for the suspension of habeas corpus.

यह बात वास्तव में काफी आम है कि राष्ट्रपतियों को यह विश्वास होता है कि आने वाली पीढ़ियाँ उनके कार्यकाल का ऐसा फैसला सुनाएंगी जो उनके समकालीनों के निर्णयों से ज़्यादा स्थायी और निर्णायक होगा। इसकी वजह यह है कि हालाँकि इतिहास निश्चित रूप से "एक कभी न खत्म होने वाली बहस" है—हम आज भी कई पुराने सवालों पर बहस कर रहे हैं—लेकिन समय बीतने के साथ दूसरे कई मामलों पर स्थिति साफ हो जाती है।

It's actually quite common for presidents to believe that future generations will render a verdict on their presidencies that is more lasting or definitive than the judgments of their contemporaries. The reason is that although history is certainly "an argument without end" - we're still debating many age-old questions - time does help settle others.

हमें राष्ट्रपतियों का मूल्यांकन केवल उनके कामों के दीर्घकालिक परिणामों के आधार पर ही नहीं करना चाहिए, बल्कि इस आधार पर भी करना चाहिए कि उनके दौर में नागरिकों ने कैसा महसूस किया। Nixon (निक्सन) अपने कमबैक अभियान में कभी सफल क्यों नहीं हो पाए, इसकी एक बड़ी वजह यह थी कि राष्ट्रपति पद के दौरान जनता के भरोसे पर उनका बहुत नकारात्मक असर पड़ा था।

We have to judge presidents not only by the long-term consequences of their actions but also by how they make citizens in their own day feel. One reason that Nixon never succeeded in his comeback campaign is that he had such a negative impact on public trust at the time of his presidency.

I find it hard to imagine that future historians will see the Iraq War as a big plus in Bush's ledger, but we have to admit that we simply don't know for sure.

मेरे लिए तुरंत ऐसा कोई उदाहरण देना मुश्किल है जहाँ किसी राष्ट्रपति ने स्पष्ट रूप से इतिहास द्वारा अपने सही साबित किए जाने की बात कही हो, लेकिन मुझे पूरा यकीन है कि ऐसे कई उदाहरण मौजूद होंगे।

लोगों को देश के सर्वोच्च पद (राष्ट्रपति) और उस पद पर आसीन व्यक्ति के बीच अंतर करना आना चाहिए। आप भले ही उस व्यक्ति से सम्मान खो बैठें, फिर भी उस पद का सम्मान बनाए रख सकते हैं।

People should make distinctions between the office of the presidency and the person who occupies it. You can respect the office even as you lose respect for the individual.
