Something for Thursday

Today is National Holocaust Remembrance Day.

It's not enough to remember that it happened. We must remember why.

Make your country...into a land that understands more than only war and righteous piety. Allow space in your lives for more than battle chants to inspire soldiers. Teach your people to...understand a garden, the reason for a fountain, music.
