Cryptoquote Spoiler – 12/03/14

“Humanity is an ocean; if a few drops of the ocean are dirty, the ocean does not become dirty.”   —   Mahatma Gandhi

(This is the Indian version of:  One bad apple don’t spoil the whole bunch.  I try not to look at people in terms of “good” and “bad”, but for the sake of argument, it’s pretty safe to say that the bad people make up a very small percentage of humanity.  They just get the lion’s share of the press.  Always have.  Probably always will.  A bunch of someones seem to think we require these cautionary tales.  I’d like to think we could do with a whole lot less, but too many of us need to be smacked over the head from time to time . . . just to stay in line.  Or, at least to be reassured that . . . you and I aren’t so bad.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
