Post scriptum

Observing the magnificent buildings of the past

except that I admire the ability of these builders I

can not dispel the sense of unease. We are heirs to

a civilization which is also built on the foundation of

slavery, war, injustice and immorality. Is the world

better today?

We can not change the world but we certainly can

change yourself!
