Full speed ahead!

We were sitting in Mac's kitchen, (our 85 year old neighbor) talking about how screwed up our country is right now. We were talking about how long it's going to take to get things straightened out. Mac mentioned we might not have enough life left to see a turn-around.
Me: "What are we going to do?"

Irene: "What can we do?"

Mac: "Damn the torpedoes. Full speed ahead!"

You go, Mac.
