- alharith 7y agoWow. First time reading this as well, and there is such wisdom in it. It is doubly apt considering what is going on in the political realm currently as well. Not a lot of understanding or willingness to fix things within the constraints of a system, just promises to tear it all down and replace it with utopian versions.
