Random Thoughts
Graft and corruption can not flourish in the government if there are militant subordinates who can stop his or her boss and say loud and clear: your freedom to dip your dirty finger in the cookie jar ends where the people's interest begins.
This sounds like the great Manuel Luis Quezon who steered a Commonwealth government that was not tainted with graft. It is merely a recast of the bureaucratic slogan that has become a cliche, without force and meaning:"Public office is a public trust."
To Oleah: In the realm of the abstract, we are our own mortal enemy, our greatest fear, our greatest pain, our greatest sorrow.
