However, we can also press "Deny all". For this, usually we need to press second choice button "Manage...".

You cannot change Joe Biden. But you can change yourself.

Robert Kiyosaki

As far as I understand, this citation is about the following. When something bad happens, it is senseless to be angry on someone or somebody. Especially if this somebody is a powerful institution. It is like to be angry on tsunami or volcano. Instead, we should think how can we change ourselves. Tsunami is a teacher and we are students. It is up to us whether to take a lesson or not.
