So few make it



Shiv Visvanathan writes which is something I share:


I feel a sadness about it and wonder why integrity and goodness seem so helpless today. Is it because there are no large movements like nationalism or Marxism shaping a generation? Is it because of the lack of dissent and eccentricity where every successful man seems like another? But this much I believe. We need to honour the idealistic and the eccentric, the dissenters and the whistleblowers. We need to salute those who turn honesty into an art form.
