“Nought loves another as itself,
Nor venerates another so,
Nor is it possible to thought
A greater than itself to know.”
“And, father, how can I love you
Or any of my brothers more?
I love you like the little bird
That picks up crumbs around the door.”
The Priest sat by and heard the child;
In trembling zeal he seized his hair,
He led him by his little coat,
And all admired the priestly care.
And standing on the altar high,
“Lo, what a fiend is here! said he:
“One who sets reason up for judge
Of our most holy mystery.”
The weeping child could not be heard,
The weeping parents wept in vain:
They stripped him to his little shirt,
And bound him in an iron chain,
And burned him in a holy place
Where many had been burned before;
The weeping parents wept in vain.
Are such thing done on Albion’s shore?

Statement Mariane Pearl, wife of killed journalist Daniel Pearl:
“The more people like Khalid Sheikh Mohammed spread fear, the more determined I am to resist by celebrating the values of humanism and dignity,”
“The only way to fight terrorism is to exercise self-control over the natural feelings of disgust and horror that his declarations provoke.”

“If the bee disappeared off the surface of the globe, then man would only have four years left to live.” - A. Einstein
He was speaking in regard to the symbiotic relationship of all life on the planet. All part of a huge interconnected ecosystem, each element playing a role dependant on many other elements all working in concert creating the symphony of life. Should any part of the global body suffer, so does the whole body.
