Today’s Meditation

Posted on June 14, 2009 | 2 Comments

tuileries

Ah, Paris!

Sitting under the maple trees

In the gardens of the Tuileries,

A bird shat on my hand.

And when I did not move,

Again on my jacket.

In Paris, even the birds do not suffer fools gladly.

These are the causes of violence:

Wealth without work

Pleasure without conscience

Knowledge without character

Commerce without morality

Science without humanity

Worship without sacrifice

Politics without principles

Rights without responsibility (added by his grandson)
