(1) It's never equal justice under law. That's why so intriguing to claim such uncharted water - idealism boils your blood; never cynical can do just that. (2) You pay what you got. (3) You go by your timeline.
Above points came to my mind when I scanned the headlines this morning. Why? What's my take?
(1)(3), Trump is 70 years old; Obama, 55; Macron, 39. That's a saying in countryside: 宁可睇小白毛公, 勿睇小流鼻虫宁可。干不过你, 我耗死你。why?
My take? 70-year-old Trump feels the pressure of his time - so he's ambitious and no patience, much far ahead of where all the others, unlike Obama, Macron
(2) (2) You pay what you got. What does that mean? Trump said: "23 countries in the EU didn't pay the share of funding - it's not fair to Americans." Yes, the United Nations is a tool for the USA as it paid the entire budget when it started with Truman, then 2/3, now 1/5 of its money. Bill Gates paid that for the USA as the USA didn't pay a couple of years ago. So, your point?
Pay to play - sounds no idealism, but it's bloody truth. Can you take it?
Take home message: Hold your horses - when you pass your judgment to "流鼻虫" or bounce back right to your face!
Same thing is true to youth: You have no patience with seniors? You'll get your turn! So?
Be humble. Nature takes its turn, running its course. There is nothing you can do about it.

"Hold your horses", sometimes said as "Hold the horses", is a common idiom to mean "hold on" or wait. The phrase is historically related to horse riding, or driving a horse-drawn vehicle.
Another way of saying "slow down" or "stop." Usually used when someone is being hasty about something and a wiser person says "Hold your horses!" to make them stop and think. Encourages someone to have caution.
Based on the times when people used wagons or carriages, and when they needed to keep them under control they would need to literally hold the horses back from running.
